Biography

After completing my master training in analytical chemistry at Sichuan University in China, I embarked on my research journey in 2008, by pursuing a PhD in materials chemistry. Over 3 years, I focused on lanthanide-based metal organic framework (MOF) as anticounterfeiting taggants, under supervising of Prof. Carole Daiguebonne in INSA de Rennes (France). In 2012, I began my first post-doctoral research in University of Rennes 1 (France), under guidance of Dr. Bruno Fabre. Here I delved into surface functionalization of silicon for electrocatalytical artificial photosynthesis (i.e. photoelectrocatalytical reduction of CO₂). Moving forward, in 2013, I joined Prof. Nicolas Alonso-Vante’s group in University of Poitiers (France), working on advanced nanoalloys and nanocomposites for cathodic reaction (i.e. oxygen reduction reaction, ORR) of fuel cells. In 2016, I accepted an Associate Professor position in South China University of Technology (China), concentrating on nanomaterials for energy conversion. One year later, I returned to France for family reason and assumed temporary lecturer and research assistant in Paris Cité University. Working with Prof. Claire Mangeney, I have focused on surface functionalization of nanomaterials for biomedical applications (e.g. biosensing and cancer theranostics), employing an innovative surface strategy using aryl diazonium salts as coupling agents. Since 2019, I have held a tenured researcher position (CRCN) at CNRS in LCBPT lab at Paris Cité University, working at the intersection at surface chemistry, nanoscience and biomedicine. Since 2019, I have secured six granted fundings, leading three research projects as the PI in the fields of bioresorbable stents, nanooptics, and cancer theranostics, also contributing as a collaborator in three additional projects in the field of biosensing and bioimaging.
