CGCA Young Researchers Award goes to Dr. Zhiyong Wang

This year, the CGCA Young Researchers Award goes to Dr. Zhiyong Wang. He is honoured for his excellent work in the synthesis of organic two-dimensional (2D) materials during his PhD studies at Prof. Feng’s group. Congratulations!

Zhiyong joined our research group as a PhD student in October 2017 at TU Dresden. His major academic contribution lies in the design and synthesis of 2D polymer and 2D conjugated metal-organic framework thin films based on novel on-water surface synthesis strategies. After graduation, he was appointed as a research group leader at TU Dresden and Max Planck Institute of Microstructure Physics, being responsible for the 2D polymer and interfacial synthesis group.
