Theory of Charge Transport in Carbon Electronic Materials

Prof. Zhigang Shuai received his PhD from Fudan University in 1989. From 1990 to 2001, he worked at the Laboratory of Chemistry for Novel Materials, University of Mons, Belgium, as a postdoc and then as a senior research associate with Prof. Jean-Luc Brédas. Since 2002, he became a full professor at the Institute of Chemistry of the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS) in Beijing, under the support of "Hundred Talent Program". Since May 2008, he became a full professor (Changjiang Scholar) at the Department of Chemistry, Tsinghua University.
Prof. Shuai is an elected member of the International Academy of Quantum Molecular Science (2008) and a fellow of the Royal Society of Chemistry (2009).
Prof. Shuai is the Associate Editor-in-Chief of Frontiers of Chemistry in China, and member of editorial boards of the following scientific journals: Theoretical Chemistry Accounts, Journal of Theoretical and Computational Chemistry, Science in China-Chemistry, Progress of Chemistry, Acta Phys.-Chim. Sinica, Journal of Molecular Science.
Prof. Shuai's research interests are theoretical chemistry and modeling of the organic and polymeric functional materials. He has published more than 230 papers with more than 4900 citations (H-factor=36), and delivered invited lectures at more than 30 international conferences.
