Jiye (James) Fang is an Associate Professor of Chemistry and Director of Materials Science Program/track at the State University of New York (SUNY) at Binghamton. After he graduated from Lanzhou University, he received his M.Sc. in Chemistry and Ph.D. in Materials Science from National University of Singapore in 1994 and 1998, respectively. He became a faculty member of Chemistry at University of New Orleans in 2002, and received National Science Foundation (NSF) CAREER award in 2005. His research direction is shape-control synthesis of functional low-dimensional materials and sustainable energy applications. http://nano.binghamton.edu

Dr. Fang has his research experiences in functional nanometerial synthesis and their applications in spintronic, thermoelectric, bio-imaging and optical aspects. His current research interests are focused on shape-control synthesis of metallic and semiconductor nanocrystals, including novel fuel cell catalysts and Li-ion battery materials, and their sustainable energy applications.
