Dr. Liu Dong is currently a Research Professor of Chemistry (PI) at the USTC. Dr. Liu Dong, born in August, 1992, obtained his bachelor’s and Ph.D degree from the University of Science and Technology of China in 2012 and 2017 respectively under the supervision of Professor Xiong Yujie. After graduating from his Ph.D., he went to Nanyang Technological University in Singapore to conduct post-doctoral research supervised by Prof. Liu Bin and Prof. Xue Can. He joined the Suzhou Institute for Advanced Research and School of Chemistry and Materials Science at the USTC in May 2021. To date, he has published 60 papers in academic journals, with over 5,200 citations and an H-index of 38 (Google Scholar). Over the past 5 years, he has published 26 papers as the corresponding author in prominent journals such as Nat. Sustain., J. Am. Chem. Soc., Angew. Chem. Int. Ed., Sci. Adv., Nat. Commun., Adv. Mater., Chem. Soc. Rev., J. Energy Chem., and Nano Res. He currently serves as a Youth Editorial Board Member of Chin. Chem. Lett. (2022-) and Youth Editor of J. Energy Chem. (2024-). He has been honored with the Nomination Award for Outstanding Doctoral Dissertation Supervisor at USTC, the CAS President's Award, and the Nano Research Top Papers Award. He serves as a committee member of the Photocatalysis Professional Committee of the Photosensitive Society of China, a youth committee member of the Photochemistry Professional Committee of the China Renewable Energy Society, a youth editorial board member for J. Energy Chem.
