Xiayun Huang, Associate Professor
Biography
Dr. Xiayun Huang is an Associate Professor in the Department of Macromolecular Science at Fudan University and the Principal Investigator in the State Key Laboratory of Molecular Engineering of Polymers. She received her Ph.D. in 2014 from Texas A&M University, and did her postdoc in the Experimental Soft Matter Lab at Texas A&M University. She joined Fudan University as an assistant professor in 2016 and was promoted to an associate professor (tenured position) in 2021. Her research focuses on the self-assembly of charged assemblies and their applications at surfaces and interfaces. She has received past fundings from Natural Science Foundation of China (NSFC) and participated in the Dow Innovation Challenge Research. She is an awardee of Shanghai Pujiang Talent Award and Emerging Investigator of J. Mater. Chem. A and Soft Matter. She has 30+ peer-reviewed publications in ACS Macro Lett., Chem. Commun., J. Mater. Chem. A, ACS AMI, etc.
