Biography

Position: ZJU 100 Youth Professor, Ph.D. Supervisor, Zhejiang University. Research Field: Climate Risk Assessment, Health and Economic Co-Benifit of Decarbonization. Utilizing leading international atmospheric chemistry transport models and machine learning methods, combined with big data in climate, population, public health, and economics, to conduct quantitative analysis of atmospheric environmental risks. Recent original research includes air quality model development, environmental health benefits in carbon neutrality, and interactions between climate change and the atmospheric environment. Published over 20 SCI papers (including more than 10 as first author/corresponding author in journals like Nature, Nature Communication, JGR, ES&T, EI, ACP, etc.). Serving as a peer-review editor for Frontiers in Environmental Science and a special issue editor for Frontiers in Public Health. Member of the review committee for the Royal Society of Chemistry (UK) grants. Recipient of the Bricard Award for Outstanding Young Scholars by the French Aerosol Research Association (2016).
