Professor Zhenjie Zhang obtained B.S. and M.S degree (Advisor: Professor Peng Cheng) from Nankai University; then he gained Ph.D from Professor Michael Zaworotko’s group at University of South Florida. He conducted postdoc research in Professor Seth Cohen’s Lab at UC San Diego. After that, he moved back to China as a full professor in College of Chemistry at Nankai University. The Zhang Group is mainly focusing on the rational design of framework materials (e.g., COFs, MOFs and cages) for gas separation and gas-triggered actuators. A total of 180 papers were published in the past five years, 90 papers published as corresponding authors: Nat. Chem. (1), Nat. Sustain. (1), Nat. Protoc. (2), Nat. Rev. Chem. (1), Chem (3), J. Am. Chem. Soc. (13), Angew. Chem. Int Ed. (24), Nat. Commun.(4), CCS Chem.(2),ACS Cent. Sci. (2), ACS Catal. (2), J. Mater. Chem. A (2),  ACS Mater. Lett. (5), Acc. Chem. Res. (1), Chem. Soc. Rev. (1), Coord. Chem. Rev. (3) etc. The paper was cited by scientists in more than 65 countries (>10000 times) and 12 papers were selected for highly cited papers. He has received the Young Investigator Award from the American Chemical Society's Inorganic Chemistry Division, CSJ Distinguished Lectureship Award, JingQing Young Investigator Award and the National Outstanding Self-financed International Student Scholarship. He was the Editorial Advisory Board member of Crystal Growth&Design and Chinese Chemical Letters.
