Biography

Botao Qiao received his Ph.D. degree in Physical Chemistry from Lanzhou Institute of Chemical Physics, Chinese Academy of Sciences, in 2008. After 3 years’postdoctoral research in professor Tao Zhang's group at Dalian Institute of Chemical Physics, he joined the same group and was promoted to associated professor in 2011. He was visiting scholar and did postdoctoral research at Arizona State University in 2012-2015.  And then he returned to the Prof. Zhang's group and was promoted as a full professor in 2017. 

 

He has published near 100 peer-reviewed papers including Chem. Rev., Nat. Chem., Sci. Adv., J. Am. Chem. Soc., Chem , Nat. Commun., Angew. Chem. In. Ed. with over 13000 citations.
