Brief introduction of the speaker:

Dr. Su is a professor of chemical engineering at Northeastern University. His research interests include material characterization, nanomaterials, advanced materials, micro and nano technology, and nanomedicines. His research team pioneered the field of nanoparticles with thermodynamic characteristics on the basis of material phase transitions and phase diagrams, proposed the concept of solid-liquid phase transformation of nanoparticles, and developed a new thermodynamic combination theory using the intrinsic thermodynamic properties of materials during melting. His team has also explored the application of solid-liquid phase variant nanoparticles in a variety of fields, including biomarker detection, enhanced fluid heat transfer performance, phase change heat storage catalyst support, hot spot cooling of efficient organisms, enhanced cancer thermal imaging, thermal stealth barcode and so on. He has received the National Science Foundation Professorship Award for Career Advancement, the National Institutes of Health Director's Award for Innovator, the Department of Defense Medical Research Program Concept Award, the Department of Justice New Investigator Award, the American Chemical Society New Doctoral Investigator Award, and the Eugene Wegener Award from Oak Ridge National Laboratory. His research is supported by the National Institutes of Health, the Natural Science Foundation, the Departments of Defense, Justice, and Energy, the National Aeronautics and Space Administration, and the Air Force Laboratory, among others.
