Pengchen Ma is an Associate Professor and Ph.D./M.S. Supervisor. She received her Ph.D. in 2020 from the Institute of Chemistry, Chinese Academy of Sciences, under the supervision of Prof. Hui Chen. From September 2021 to September 2023, she conducted postdoctoral research at the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) with Prof. K. N. Houk. Her research focuses on multiscale, mechanism-driven theoretical and computational studies and rational design of enzymatic catalysis and 3d transition metal–catalyzed reactions. In particular, her work aims to elucidate how spin-state–dependent electronic structures and microenvironmental effects govern reaction mechanisms and selectivity. She has led multiple research projects funded by the National Natural Science Foundation of China (NSFC), provincial-level programs, and Xi’an Jiaotong University initiatives. As first author or computational collaborator, she has published in leading international journals, including Nature, Science, Nature Catalysis, Nature Chemistry, Journal of the American Chemical Society, Angewandte Chemie International Edition, ACS Central Science, Nature Communications, Chemical Science, ACS Catalysis, and Organic Letters.
