Hua Chun Zeng

Hua Chun Zeng obtained his B.S. degree in chemistry from Xiamen University in 1982, and Ph.D. degree in physical chemistry (surface science) from the University of British Columbia in 1989. Following postdoctoral work in surface photochemistry at the University of Toronto, he joined the faculty at the National University of Singapore in 1991. His research interests are, at present, focused on the exploration of synthetic architecture for inorganic nanomaterials. Professor Hua Chun Zeng is the author of 4 invited book chapters and more than 135 research papers and reviews in prime chemical and materials journals. He is a member of editorial advisory boards for several international peer-reviewed journals.
