Dr. Yige Zhou received her B.S. and M.S. degrees in Chemistry from Nanjing University, China, before pursuing further studies at the University of Oxford, where she obtained her PhD degree in Chemistry in 2013. After completing her doctoral studies, Dr. Zhou continued her academic journal as a postdoctoral fellow at University of Toronto and Northwestern University in USA. She is currently a professor at Hunan University, China.
At Hunan University, Dr. Zhou’s research primarily focuses on the fundamental study of single-entity electroanalytical chemistry, as well as its applications in ultrasensitive liquid biopsy and fluidized electrochemistry systems. Dr. Zhou also works on dip-pen nanolithography-based micro/nano fabrication platforms that enable the study of biochips and array electrochemical systems. Outside the laboratory, Dr. Zhou is a violinist who enjoys playing both as a soloist and as part of an orchestra.
