Author Biography

Dr. Liming Wang received his Ph.D. from Shanghai Institute of Ceramics, Chinese Academy of Sciences in 2016. After the postdoctoral research at Texas A&M University, he was appointed as a Distinguished Professor in College of Textiles, Donghua University in 2018. His research focuses on electrospun nanofibers. He has authored over 60 scientific publications including Nature Communications, Energy & Environmental Science, Advanced Fuctional Materials, Small, Materials Horizons.

Prof. Xiaohong Qin is currently a professor and vice dean of the College of Textiles at Donghua University in China. She received her Ph. D. from Donghua University in 2002, did her post-doctorate at Hong Kong Polytechnic University in 2003 before joining Donghua University later on in 2003. Her investigative work mainly involves in nanofiber electrospinning theory and methods to solve its uncontrollable process, low yield and ordered aggregation problems that challenge scientists globally. She has been the principal investigator for over 40 multi-year grants, including six from the National Natural Science Foundation of China. She has received the first-place award in the Science and Technology Progress competition in 2014 and 201 from China National Textile and Apparel Council. She was selected as the Chang Jiang Scholars Program in 2015. Moreover, she has co-edited three books, published over 200 peer-reviewer articles in international journals. She also holds 59 issued patents, 21 of which have been successfully turned into the factory productions.
