Email: qiuli@ynu.edu.cn
Li Qiu obtained his PhD degree in Chemical Engineering from the Qingdao Institute of Bioenergy and Bioprocess Technology, Chinese Academy of Sciences in 2014. After conducting postdoctoral research in the groups of J. C. (Kees) Hummelen (University of Groningen, NL) and Wei Zhang (University of Colorado, Boulder, USA) during 2014–2018, he joined the faculty at Yunnan University as a high-level talent where he is currently an Associate Professor. In recent years, he has published more than 60 papers in internationally renowned academic journals such as Advanced Materials, Chemical Science, Small, ACS Materials Letter, Chinese Chemical Letters, etc., and has been invited to serve as a reviewer for many international mainstream academic journals. He currently presides over the National Natural Science Foundation of China, "Thousand Young Talents" project and The Key Project of Natural Science Foundation in Yunnan Province.
