Patrick (Pat) Unwin is Fellow of the Royal Society and Head of the Department of Chemistry at the University of Warwick, where he was first Lecturer (1991), senior lecturer (1996) and then full Professor (since 1998). Pat is a graduate of the University of Liverpool (BSc, 1985) and the University of Oxford (DPhil 1989). He was elected Junior Research Fellow in Physical Science at Balliol College, Oxford (1988-90) and then won a SERC/NATO Fellowship to work with Prof. Al Bard at the University of Texas at Austin (1990-91). Pat and his group invent ground-breaking instrumental techniques that have changed the way in which scientists can view electrochemical and interfacial processes. The group is particularly well known for the invention and extensive applications of scanning electrochemical cell microscopy (SECCM). Pat’s inventions in the fields of electrochemical imaging, correlative electrochemical multimicroscopy and nanoelectrochemistry allow the key features of complex electrodes and interfaces to be targeted and studied in unprecedented detail, with applications spanning electrocatalysts, membranes, battery electrode materials and sensor electrodes.

Prof. Fu obtained his B.S. in 1996 from Beijing Institute of Technology and his Ph.D. in 2000 from the same university. Subsequently, he joined Max Planck Institute for Metal Research and Fritz Haber Institute for postdoctoral researches between 2000 and 2006. In 2006, he took a position at Dalian Institute of Chemical Physics (DICP), the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS), supported by CAS “100 Talent Program”. His current research programs are concerned with surface science and catalysis. He has published more than 270 SCI papers receiving more than 23000 citations. He has received the State Natural Science Award (the First Prize) and National Innovation Competition Award. He now serves as the Senior Editor for Journal of Physical Chemistry Letters.
