In September 2024, the Jiao Yang research group welcomed four new members: doctoral students Lu Chenglong, Ouyang Kunchen, undergraduates Bu Xiangrui and Hua Yunpeng.

Lu Chenglong comes from Kaifeng City, Henan Province. He graduated from Kaifeng High School in Henan Province and completed his undergraduate studies at the School of Chemistry and Chemical Engineering of Shandong University. In 2024, he entered the School of Chemistry and Molecular Engineering at Peking University to pursue a Ph.D. degree. His research interests mainly focus on controlled radical polymerization based on specific molecular recognition.

Ouyang Kunchen hails from Liangshan Yi Autonomous Prefecture, Sichuan Province. He completed his undergraduate studies at ShanghaiTech University, where he conducted research on the co-crystallization of C60 with sodium alkoxide clusters under the guidance of Professor Li Zhi. In 2024, he began his Ph.D. studies in our group, with his research interests in supramolecular recognition of radical species and novel polymers based on supramolecular chemistry.

Bu Xiangrui was born in Quzhou City, Zhejiang Province. He graduated from Hangzhou Xuejun High School and won first prize in the Final of the Chinese Chemistry Olympiad. In 2023, he entered the School of Chemistry and Molecular Engineering at Peking University through the Plan for strengthening basic academic disciplines. His research interests mainly lie in organic methodology and radical chemistry.

Hua Yunpeng comes from Yangzhou City, Jiangsu Province. He graduated from Yangzhou High School in Jiangsu Province and entered the School of Environmental Science and Engineering at Peking University through the Plan for strengthening basic academic disciplines in 2023. In 2024, he transferred to the School of Chemistry and Molecular Engineering at Peking University. His research interests are in supramolecular chemistry and supramolecular materials.

We warmly welcome the addition of all students and look forward to their active performance in the new environment!
