Scientific Achievements & Selected Publications：
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 136 papers were published in the past five years, 65 papers published as corresponding authors including 50 papers with IF>10: Nat. Sustain. (1), Nat. Protoc. (1), Nat. Rev. Chem. (1), Chem (2), J. Am. Chem. Soc. (7), Angew. Chem. Int Ed. (18), Nat. Commun.(2), ACS Cent. Sci. (2), ACS Catal. (2), J. Mater. Chem. A (2), ACS Mater. Lett. (1), Acc. Chem. Res. (1), Chem. Soc. Rev. (1), Coord. Chem. Rev. (3) etc. The paper was cited by scientists in more than 65 countries (>5000 times) and 11 papers were selected for highly cited papers. He has received the Young Investigator Award from the American Chemical Society's Inorganic Chemistry Division, JingQing Young Investigator Award and the National Outstanding Self-financed International Student Scholarship. He was the Editorial Advisory Board member of Crystal Growth&Design, Smart Molecules and Chinese Chemical Letters.
