About me
Jiayin Yuan is Professor of Materials Chemistry at Stockholm University, Sweden. He earned his PhD in polymer chemistry in Germany in 2009 and subsequently led a research team developing functional polymers at the Max Planck Institute of Colloids and Interfaces, Germany. After a one-year stay in the United States, he joined Stockholm University as a Wallenberg Academy Fellow in 2018 and has been a full professor since 2019. He received an European research council (ERC) Starting Grant in 2014 and an ERC Consolidator Grant in 2022. His current research focuses on functional polymers and carbon materials for tackling environmental and energy challenges in sustainable development.
