Short Biography
Zong-Quan Wu received B.S. degree in 2001 from Anhui Normal University, and Ph. D degree in 2006 under the supervision of Prof. Zhan-Ting Li at Shanghai Institute of Organic Chemistry (SIOC), Chinese Academy of Science (CAS). He joined Yashima-Laboratory at Nagoya University in Japan, as a JSPS and JST postdoc from 2006 to 2010. After that, he continued postdoctoral research at the University of Texas at Austin with Prof. Christopher W. Bielawski. In 2011, he was appointed as a full professor at Hefei University of Technology (HFUT). After worked at HFUT for 11 years, he moved to Jilin University in 2022. He now works on controlled synthesis helical polymers with distinct structures and functions.
