Dr Yunlong Zhao is an Associate Professor at the Dyson School of Design Engineering, Imperial College London. He also holds a joint appointment at the National Physical Laboratory (UK) as a Senior Scientist. Yunlong carried out his postdoctoral and doctoral research at the Department of Chemistry and Chemical Biology, Harvard University, where he conducted research in bioelectronic materials and devices, and nano-bio interface. He also received his undergraduate and postgraduate research training at the Wuhan University of Technology, with a focus on electrochemical energy storage and electrochemical probing. Yunlong gained highly multidisciplinary research experience in material science, electrochemistry, electrophysiology, electronic engineering, biomedical engineering and nano-bio interface. He has developed a series of novel bioelectronics, sensors, energy storage devices, and their integration into 2D on-chip and 3D soft systems for the in-depth studies of electrophysiology and electrochemical energy storage, with over 100 publications published in peer-reviewed journals such as Nature, Nature Nanotechnology, Nature Materials, Nature Communications, Nature Reviews Materials, PNAS, etc. His work has attracted widespread attention from academics, media and industries. Due to his academic contributions, Yunlong has received numerous prestigious awards, e.g., the Second-Class Prize of State Natural Science Award, the Wiley-VCH Rising Stars, the Top 5 finalist for the USERN prize, etc. Currently, he leads the Electrochemical and Bioelectronic Interface group at the Dyson School of Design Engineering, as well as a member of the Centre for Processable Electronics (Theme Lead of Sensors and Wearable Electronics), Electrochemical Science and Engineering group, etc. A list of all of Yunlong's papers can be found on his Google Scholar page.
