Information

To NGAI now is Professor in the Department of chemistry, Assistant Dean (Research) of the Faculty at the Chinese University of Hong Kong (CUHK), and Fellow of the Royal Society of Chemistry (FRSC). He received his B.Sc. in chemistry at CUHK in 1999. In 2003, he obtained the Ph.D at the same university, where he worked on light scattering and polymer interaction in solution. He moved to BASF (Ludwigshafen, Germany) in 2003 as the postdoctoral fellow for two years, working on colloids and surface chemistry. After a short postdoctoral training in the Chemistry Department at the University of Minnesota in 2005, he joined the Chemistry Department at CUHK in 2006 as a research assistant professor. He has been appointed as an assistant professor in 2008, and early promoted to associate professor in 2012. In 2017, he was promoted to Professor. His current research interests center around the colloids, surface chemistry, polymers and soft matter.
