Dr.Pingwei Liu currently is a “hundred talents program” distinguished research fellow (tenure-tracked assistant professor) of Zhejiang University, China. He worked as a postdoctoral researcher at Massachusetts Institute of Technology in the group of Prof. Michael Strano during 2014-2018. He received his Ph.D. degree from Chemical Engineering of Zhejiang University in 2014. His research interests lie at the nexus of polymers and two-dimensional (2D) materials and the study of their applications in nanocomposites, microrobots, and nanocatalysis. He has published more than 30 articles in the journals of Science, Nature Materials, Nature Nanotechnology, and others. He has obtained one international invention patent authorization and two US invention patent applications and has contributed in the direction of layered and scrolled polymer nanocomposites with 2D materials, intelligent particles and synthetic cells based on 2D materials. Some of his results have been reported by major media including Nature Mater., MIT News, Angew. Chem. Int. Ed., Nano Today, Mater. Today. He was a recipient of the excellent paper award in the 8th Chemical Engineering Young Scholars Academic Exchange Seminar of China in 2018. He serviced as the Chair at 2D Nanocomposites Session of AIChE Annual Meeting 2017 and 2018.
