Research Associate

Yang Lan completed his Ph.D at the University of Cambridge (Jan. 2011-Dec. 2014) under the supervision of Prof. Oren A. Scherman. His PhD studis was focused on hierarchical colloid preparation based on supramolecular host-guest interactions and in situ polymerisation. After PhD graduation, Yang continued his research in the same group as a postdoctoral researcher. His current research is centred on monofunctionalisation of cucurbit[n]uril and supramolecular colloidal gel.
