​Prof. Nanfeng Zheng received his B.S. from Xiamen University in 1998. In 2005, he obtained his Ph.D. degree in chemistry from University of California-Riverside. During 2005-2007, he worked on gold catalysis as a research associate at University of California-Santa Barbara. In 2007, he moved to Xiamen University as a full professor. He has been appointed as Cheung Kong Professor since 2010. He has received a number of awards including Distinguished Young Investigator Award from NSF of China (2009), Chinese National Young Scientist Award (2016). He is on the advisory editorial boards or editorial boards of several journals including ACS Cent. Sci., Nano Res., ACS Sustainable Chem. & Eng., Adv. Mater. Interfaces, Sci. China-Chem., Inorg. Chem. Front., and ChemNanoMat. His research interests focus on the surface and interface chemistry for the development of advanced functional materials for both fundamental research and practical applications, particularly in the fields of catalysis, energy, environmental science and biology. He has published 130 articles with over 10000 citations.
