Qiang Wang received a B.S. degree from Wuhan University in 1999. He then joined Prof. Yi Chen's group at the Institute of Chemistry, Chinese Academy of Sciences as a graduate student and got his M.S. degree in 2002. He thereafter went to Boston University in the U.S.A. to pursue a Ph.D. degree in Prof. Rosina Georgiadis's group, and then transferred to Boston College in 2004 under the guidance of Prof. Torsten Fiebig. He obtained his Ph.D. degree in May, 2008 and became an associate professor of chemistry at Lanzhou University in October. He was promoted to a full professorship in 2017. His current research interests include nonlinear optics and ultrafast spectroscopy. HaoLi Zhang received his B.S. in organic chemistry in 1994, and Ph.D. degree in 1999 from Lanzhou University. He then worked in the University of Leeds and Oxford University as a postdoc. In 2004, he was appointed as a full professor by the State Key Laboratory of Applied Organic Chemistry (SKLAOC) of Lanzhou University. He is currently the deputy director of SKLAOC and deputy dean of the College of Chemistry and Chemical Engineering. In 2014, he became a Fellow of Royal Society of Chemistry (FRSC). He is an editorial board member of Acta PhysicoChimica Sinica and Chinese Chemical Letters, and an advisory board member of Chem. Soc. Rev. Prof. HaoLi Zhang is interested in developing new organic functional materials for electronic and optoelectronic applications. He has published more than 240 research papers.
