Dr. Hanxun Qiu is a confirmed scientist dedicated to the research and development of advanced carbon nanomaterials. After completing a BE degree in Engineering in 2000, he pursued his PhD degree in Materials of Chemistry at Dalian University of Technology and Peking University, China, and received a PhD degree in 2007. He later moved to the University of Tsukuba, Japan, where he carried out postdoctoral research. In the interim, he worked at Tokyo Gakugei University as a senior visiting scholar. In late 2010, Dr. Qiu joined the School of Materials Science and Engineering at USST, and was promoted to Associate Professor in the same year. Now he works there as a PI in the advanced carbon research group. His research interests focus on graphene and carbon nanotube-based composite materials, and their applications in energy storage and transformation, catalysis, and light-emission devices. He has received awards from the National Natural Science Foundation of China, Outstanding Talent Foundation of Shanghai as well as a Research Award from the international Journal-Carbon, Elsevier. So far, Dr. Qiu has authored more than 100 scientific papers in peer-reviewed international journals, with an H-index over 25, and over 3000 citations in journals such as JACS, Chemical Communications, Chemical Engineering Journal, Journal of Materials Chemistry A, Carbon, Nanoscale, etc.
