Muhammad Qasim received the CAS-TWAS President PhD fellowship in 2017, and successfully completed his PhD in December 2020 from the world’s top ranked University of Science and Technology of China with major Polymer Chemistry and Physics. After the PhD the researcher continued his post-doctoral research in the field of catalysis and olefin polymerization. The researcher has published research articles as a first/corresponding and co-author in SCI recognized journals including Sci. Bull., Eur. Polym. J., polymer chemistry and Polymer. He also has one patent as a first inventor (China Patent CN 115745935B) in which novel N^O type nickel catalyst based on coumarin backbone have been introduced, which generates zwitterion ions by Lewis acid activation, and effectively promotes the homogenization and copolymerization of ethylene and norbornene. The researcher also has secured research grant under the National Natural Science Foundation of China-Foreign Young Scholars Research Fund as a PI, (NSFC fund number: 22150 My research interest is in synthesis of structurally complex and diverse organic monomers, ligands, transition metal catalysts and Olefin Polymerization. Stimuli responsive Polymers, Ring-opening metathesis polymerization (ROMP) and controlled radical polymerization techniques (RAFT/ATRP), Organo-catalysis and Ring-opening polymerization for sustainable and functional polymers.
