Associate Research Professor Ali Khalilov of UNEC’s Department
of Engineering and Applied Sciences is currently undertaking a
six-month research fellowship at Washington University in St. Louis
(WashU), one of the leading higher education institutions in the
United States.
As part of the Fulbright Program, Ali Khalilov has been
conducting research in St. Louis, Missouri. Washington University’s
official website has published a featured article titled “From UNEC to
Washington University” highlighting his academic activities.
The article describes the UNEC scholar’s successful research work
as a Fulbright Visiting Scholar in the Department of Chemistry and
his significant contribution to Professor Birman’s research
group.
At UNEC, Associate
Research Professor Ali Khalilov is working on the design of novel
self-complementary hydrogen-bonded arrays and investigating their
potential as self-healing “smart materials.”
It should be noted that this is not his first academic
achievement in the United States. During his initial Fulbright
visit in 2017-2018, his research was published in the
world-renowned Journal of the American Chemical Society,
establishing an important scientific foundation for future
studies.
Author of more than 60 scientific publications and Executive
Secretary of the UNEC Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences,
Ali Khalilov also actively supports the academic development of
young researchers and promotes global scientific collaboration.
