Dr. Siyu Wu is a Postdoctoral Research Associate in the Complex Scattering Program at NSLS-II, Brookhaven National Laboratory. His research focuses on advanced synchrotron X-ray characterization techniques, including SAXS/WAXS, GISAXS/GIWAXS, to study material properties and dynamics. He specializes in polymer processing-structure-property relationships, nanotechnology, and in-situ/operando X-ray studies. Dr. Wu also develops high-throughput workflows, image processing, and data analysis methods using Python and MATLAB.

Dr. Wu has a Ph.D. in Chemistry from Temple University, where he studied the nanoparticles using small-angle X-ray scattering. He has contributed to multiple collaborative projects involving industrial partners. His expertise spans beamline operation, maintenance, and optimization, with a particular focus on in situ mechanical, high-temperature and high-throughput experiments. He is committed to advancing materials science through innovative synchrotron research and interdisciplinary collaborations across academia and industry.
