Biography

I am the Principal Investigator (PI) of the Environmental and Public Health Group and a Professor with a 'Young Talent Tier A' appointment at Xi'an Jiaotong University (XJTU), member of the 'C9 league' universities in China, which is ranked among the top 10 in science and engineering in the country. 

 

The overall theme of my research is on environment and public health, and much of my previous work was on emerging contaminants, particularly the migration of trace organic compounds into and out of polymers including membranes, common plastics, and elastomers. I have strong interests in advancing public health including exposure identification, risk assessment, mitigation, and science communication to the general public. 

 

Prior to joining XJTU, I received research training and experience from the University of Auckland (UoA), National University of Singapore (NUS), University of Illinois at Urbana Champaign (UIUC), and University of Massachusetts Amherst (UMass Amherst), and worked with the PIs of several world-renowned laboratories in my fields. Since my Auckland times, I have supervised over 50 students, including undergraduates and Master's students who later developed strong interests in scientific research and pursued their PhDs. In the past five years, I have delivered 12 research projects as the PI and received over 8 million RMB in research funding.

 

I have a strong passion in scientific writing, editing, and communication. I hold appointments as the Co-Editor-in-Chief of Environmental Chemistry Letters (Springer Nature, JCR Q1, IF 15.7), the Academic Editor of PLoS ONE (JCR Q2, IF 3.7), and the Editorial Board member of Ecotoxicology and Environmental Safety (JCR Q1, IF 6.8), and the Science Editor of Animal Diseases (new journal launched in spring 2021). I serve as a member of the Council of Science Editors (U.S.) and the China Editology Society of Science Periodicals. I am a Senior Member of the Chinese Society for Enviornmental Sciences and hold long-term memberships of the International Water Association (IWA) and the American Chemical Society (ACS).

Past, Present & Future Research on Plastics @ The Han Lab

 

 

高分子（聚合物）材料是本人研究时间最长、涉及范围最广的领域。研究内容涵盖了分子间作用、溶解化学基础理论，到化合物两相分配，再到材料筛选、分析改性与合成，直至下游环境、化工、制药行业的应用以及公众健康领域的风险评估。

Topics

Our current research covers the following domains:

 

(1) Plastics and rubbers (bulk, micro, nano) as anthropogenic contaminants

     (不同大小与尺寸的塑料与橡胶污染物)

(2) Interactions between polymers - chemicals - biological substances

     (聚合物、化合物、生物质之间的相互作用）

(3) Synthesis, characterization, and modification of functional polymers

     (功能性聚合物的合成、表征与改性)

(4) Applications and implications in environmental and public health domain

     (以上在环境与公众健康领域中的应用与意义)

 

We seek students, postdocs, visiting students or scholars, and collaborators from polymer science, environmental science and engineering, biology and microbiology, and life science related disciplines to conduct further work in these research domains.
