Chen Wang

Prof. Chen Wang received his B.S. degree from University of Science and Technology of China in 1986. After obtaining his PhD from University of Virginia in 1992, he joined Arizona State University as a postdoctoral associate. In 1994, he became a professor of Central China Normal University. He was a faculty of the Institute of Chemistry, Chinese Academy of Sciences from 1995 to 2004, and is currently a professor of National Center for Nanoscience and Technology of China. He has been involved in several major projects as PI, such as Major Program of National Natural Science Foundation of China (NSFC), Key Project of Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS), and National Basic Research Program of China (“973” Program, Ministry of Science and Technology, MOST). He has delivered many invited lectures in international academic conference. He has published more than 200 papers in international peer-reviewed journals including Chem. Soc. Rev., Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci., J. Am. Chem. Soc., Angew. Chem. Int. Ed., Nano Lett. etc. He published 4 books in Chinese or English.
