Tao Yang

Tao Yang received her Master degree from Lanzhou Institute of Chemical Physics, Chinese Academy of Sciences in 2005. In 2008, Dr. Tao Yang got her Ph.D. degree from Institute of Coal Chemistry, Chinese Academy of Sciences, and worked on Water-Gas-Shift reaction mechanism on iron oxides. After graduating, Dr. Tao Yang joined the group of Prof. Roald Hoffmann (the 1981 Nobel Prize in Chemistry) in Cornell University as a research scholar. In 2015, Dr. Tao Yang joined the group of Prof. Baojian Shen in State Key Laboratory of Heavy Oil Processing, China University of Petroleum as a research scientist, and is working on iron-based catalysts for hydrodesulfurization via theoretical approaches, including DFT and MD. Dr. Tao Yang’s interests is to pursue and hunt a “route” to rational design Fe-based materials and catalysts with desired functionality.
