Bio:

Yanghui Zhang received his BS and MS in chemistry at Tongji University in Shanghai, China. After 3 years research experience at Shanghai Institute of Organic Chemistry, Chinese Academy of Sciences, he moved to the University of Georgia in Athens, USA to start his PhD studies in carbohydrate chemistry under the direction of Professor Geert-Jan Boons in 2002, and obtained his PhD degree in 2007. He was a postdoctoral fellow working on palladium-catalyzed CH functionalization in the research group of Prof. Jin-Quan Yu at The Scripps Research Institute in La Jolla, USA for approximately 3 years. Currently, he is a professor in the Department of Chemistry of Tongji University, and his research focuses on the development of highly efficient and step- and atomeconomic catalytic transformations for organic syntheses.
