Welcome to Jie Fan’s laboratory at Chemistry Department of Zhejiang University.

   Our research interests are primarily associated with basic science in physical chemistry, materials chemistry, bio-chemistry and interface chemistry and their practical importance in the development of energy-harvesting, environment-protecting, and life-saving systems. 

News!!!

A letter to prospective students

Dear Prospective Students: 

   Thank you for taking the time to view our website. On behalf of our research group, I invite you to consider our ongoing projects, and feel free to contact me regarding future opportunities for pursuing your Ph.D. studies at ZJU.

Students in the group will usually get involved in a multitude of projects during their graduate school careers. One can anticipate gaining experience in several areas of research, including inorganic synthesis, material characterization, heterogeneous catalysis, and bio-immobilization and catalysis. 

What you will have in this group? 1) freedom, every graduate/postdoc will have kind of freedom on his/her research, you have to think for yourself. 2) fun, I strongly believe that people working in this group should have fun at work:-)

What you need have to be a member of this group? Your passion to science. You have to like what you will be doing. You need to be fascinated by the chemistry and materials.

 Should our programs interest you further, you are very welcome to apply and visit us in Hangzhou.

Sincerely,

Dr. Jie Fan
