Education and career

edit

Shuyun obtained her B.S. in Physics (2002) from the Tsinghua University in China. She earned her Ph.D. degree in 2007 at University of California, Berkeley where she worked with Alessandra Lanzara.[2] She did postdoctoral research at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory and was a project scientist there until 2012 when she moved to Tsinghua University[3] where she was named professor in 2017.[4]

Research

edit

Zhoul is known for her work on the electronic structure of two-dimensional materials and heterostrucures.[2] This work includes investigations into graphene[5] and Dirac fermion.[6]

Awards

edit

In February 2017, she was received the a fellowship from the L'Oréal-UNESCO For Women in Science China program, also known as the China Young Women Scientists Award.[7][2] She received the Sir Martin Wood Prize for physical science research in China in 2019.[3]
