Dr. Bhavana Gupta from University of Bordeaux was employed in Engineering Research Center for Nanomaterials (ERCN) as the “Top-notch Talent” distinguished professor of Henan University, and she start working from 9th of December 2019. Dr. Bhavana Gupta is working in the field of conducting polymer, photochemistry, and electrochemistry. Her joining will promot the development of polymer chemistry and electrochemistry in our university.
Dr. Bhavana Gupta gave an academic presentation in the conference room 417 of ERCN on 19th December. The seminar was chaired by Prof. Qiuye Li, the vice dean of ERCN. Prof. Li introduced the process how Bhavana Gupta was employed and gave a detailed introduction of her research experience. The teachers and students of ERCN warmly welcomed Bhavana Gupta for her joining. Then Dr. Bhavana Gupta gave a lecture entitled “Functional materials: conjugated systems and inorganic semiconductor”. In her presentation, she talked about the synthesis and applications of conducting polymer, wireless actuation in bipolar electrochemistry, as well as the photocatalysis and lubrication of inorganic semiconductor.
It’s expected that the joining of Dr. Bhavana Gupta will promote the international academic exchanges of the Engineering Research Center for Nanomaterials.
