Prof. Shanqing Zhang obtained his PhD degree in electrochemistry in 2001 at Griffith University, Australia. Since then, he has worked as a research fellow during 2001-2006, senior research fellow during 2007-2009 and associate professor at Centre for Clean Environment and Energy and School of Environment and Science, Griffith University during 2010-2015. As a core inventor, Dr. Zhang has developed a series of patented and commercialized technologies for environmental monitoring based on functional nanomaterials. He was awarded Australia Research Council Future Fellow for 2009-2013. Currently, Prof. Zhang is mainly engaged in the research on synthesis of functional nanomaterials and modification of environmentally friendly natural polymers for energy conversion and storage devices, as well as the development of intelligent online and/or onsite sensors for environmental monitoring. He has published 250 reputable papers and delivered numerous plenary, keynotes and invited lectures.
