Dongyuan Zhao Editor & Author

An-Hui Lu,currently at the Max-Planck-Institut f³r Kohlenforschung, originally received his BS from Taiyuan University of Technology. He obtained his PhD in 2001 from the Institute of Coal Chemistry at the Chinese Academy of Sciences. After post-doctoral experience as a Max-Planck research fellow and Alexander von Humboldt fellow at the Max-Planck-Institut f³r Kohlenforschung, he was promoted to group leader in 2005. He received the Brian Kelly Award in 2006 and in 2007 he became guest professor at the Dalian University of Technology. His research interests include synthesis and functionalization of nanostructured materials and magnetically separable catalysts and the use of these materials in heterogeneous catalytic reactions. Dongyuan Zhao, currently at the Department of Chemistry, Fudan University received his BS and MS in chemistry from Jilin University. He obtained his PhD in 1990 from Jilin University and the Dalian Institute of Chemical Physics. In 1992-1993, he was a visiting scholar at the Department of Chemistry, University of Regina and later carried out his postdoctoral research at the Weizmann Institute of Science followed by the University of Houston and the University of California at Santa Barbara. He is now a Professor (Cheung Kong Professorship) in the Department of Chemistry at Fudan University and in 2007 he was elected as academician of the Chinese Academy of Sciences. His current research interests include synthesis, structural characterization and application on ordered porous materials, such as mesoporous materials, zeolites and coordination polymers.
