 Meining Zhang received her B. Sc and M. Sc in Chemistry from Shaanxi Normal University. She received her PhD degree in the Institute of Chemistry at the Chinese Academy of Sciences in 2006 and pursued post-doctoral studies at Tohoku University (2006-2008). She is a recipient of the 2015 ‘‘National Excellent Young Scholars’’ from the National Natural Science Foundation of China and the 2017 “Distinguished Young Scholars” from Renmin University. She is currently a professor in the Department of Chemistry at Renmin University of China, working on in vivo monitoring of neurochemicals mainly based on rational design and careful construction of electrode with high specificity and sensitivity.
