个人简介
Chunmao received his B.S. in Pharmaceutical Engineering from the Taiyuan University of Technology in 2005, and later a Master degree in Organic Chemistry from the Guangzhou Institute of Chemistry (CAS) in 2008. He received his Ph.D. in Bioinorganic Chemistry from the Max Planck Institute for Chemical Energy Conversion (formerly MPI Bioinorganic Chemistry), working on the understanding of the fundamentals in heme protein catalysis, under the direction of Prof. Wolfgang Lubitz. He used a variety of biophysical techniques including UV-vis, Raman and EPR. In 2013, he moved to the; laboratory of Prof. Jeffrey Bode at ETH Zurich (also ITbM, Nagoya University) to learn peptide synthesis and ligation techniques as a postdoc. Since Aug. 2016, he joined the faculty of the School of Chemistry and Chemical Engineering, SCUT, as a full Professor.

研究领域
Our research, powered by our expertise in protein manipulation either recombinantly or chemically, centers on the development of artificial metalloproteins that are highly relevant for small (but reactive) gaseous molecule storage/transportation and sustainable catalysis. We are combining a number of key techniques from molecular biology to protein chemical synthesis to spectroscopy.
