Hongda Wang received his bachelor’s degree from the Department of Molecular Biology, Jilin University in 1995 and his doctorate from the Changchun Institute of Applied Chemistry, Chinese Academy of Sciences, in 2000. He worked as a postdoctoral research associate at the Max Planck Institute of Molecular Physiology and Arizona State University from 2001 to 2007. Since 2008, he has been working as a PI at the Changchun Institute of Applied Chemistry (under the CAS 100 Talent Program). Prof. Wang is the winner of The National Science Fund for Distinguished Young Scholars. His primary research interest is in the structure and function of cell membranes using multiple single-molecule techniques, particularly atomic force microscopy, molecular recognition imaging and super-resolution fluorescence microscopy. Guohui Li received his bachelor’s degree from the Department of Physics, Liaoning Normal University in 1994 and his doctorate from Dalian Institute of Chemical Physics(DICP), Chinese Academy of Sciences, in 2000. He worked as a postdoctoral research associate at the University of New Mexico, University of Wisconsin Madison, and Harvard Medical School from 2000 to 2006, and served as a research scientist at Biogen Idec Inc. from 2006 to 2009. Since 2009, he has been working as a PI at DICP. His main research interest is in studying the biophysical properties and biochemical functionality of soluble and membrane-associated macromolecules through computational simulation techniques; the developments in and applications of force fields with high precision and efficiency; and the combination of new force fields and enhanced sampling techniques. The polarizable lipid models developed by his lab have been used to study the structure, dynamics of membrane bilayers, and microscopic mechanism of membrane proteins.
