Biography
Dr. Ruoxue Yan is currently an assistant professor in Chemical and Environmental Engineering in University of California, Riverside. Prior to arriving at UCR, Yan was a postdoctoral fellow at Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, where she developed spectroscopic platforms to advance the fundamental understandings of the role of nanoscale interfaces in photocatalytic processes, such as artificial photosynthesis, at the molecular level. Yan received her Ph.D. in chemistry from UC Berkeley in 2010, with her doctoral research focusing on design, synthesis and fabrication of nano-materials for photonic applications. She demonstrated various nanowire-based photonic components and invented a single cell endoscopy where nanowire photonics was interfaced with living human cells for high-resolution imaging, spot cargo delivery and optical sensing at a single cell level. Her current research interests lie in synthesis, characterization and device implementation of advanced materials for biological and energy applications, with an emphasis on nanowire-live cell interface, nano-catalysis and solar energy conversion.
