Dr. Shi-Gang Sun obtained his Bachelor of Science from Xiamen University, China, in 1982, Doctorat d’Etat (Docteur ès Sciences Physiques) at the Université Pierre et Marie Curie (Paris VI), France, in 1986. After one year of post-doctoral research in the Laboratoire d’Electrochimie Interfaciale du CNRS, France, he returned to China by the end of 1987, and served as associate professor and later full professor in 1991 at the Department of Chemistry of Xiamen University till now. The main research interests of Prof. Sun include Electrocatalysis, Electrochemical Surface Science, Spectroelectrochemistry, Nanomaterials and Chemical power sources. He has published up to now 461 SCI papers with peer citation over 13000, obtained 14 innovation patents, co-authored 2 books entitled respectively “In-Situ Spectroscopic Studies of Adsorption at the Electrode and Electrocatalysis” (Elsevier, 2007) and “Electrocatalysis” (Chinese Chemical Engineering Press, 2014), and contributed by invitation 20 chapters to 18 scientific books. Prof. Sun has been elected member of Chinese Academy of Sciences in 2015, fellow of International Society of Electrochemistry (ISE) in 2007, and fellow of Royal Society of Chemistry (RSC) in 2005. He has been awarded the “Brian Conway Prize” from International Society of Electrochemistry (ISE), “Distinguished Contribution Award” from the Chinese Society of Electrochemistry, “Le prix Franco-Chinois 2014-2015” jointly from Société Chimique de France (SCF) and Chinese Chemical Society (CCS), and the State Natural Science Award (2nd Degree) of China. He is now editorial board member of Journal of Electroanalytical Chemistry, Functional Materials Letters and International Journal of Analytical Chemistry, serving as associate editor to Electrochimica Acta, Spectral Analysis and Spectroscopy, Chinese Journal of Chemical Education, Acta Chimica Sinica, and editor-in-chief of the Journal of Electrochemistry.
