Biography
Dr. Chun-Yu Ho received his Ph.D. in 2005 under the supervision of Prof. Dan Yang in The University of Hong Kong for organocatalytic asymmetric epoxidation. After pursing post-doctoral research during 2005-07 with Prof. Timothy F. Jamison in MIT for transition metal catalysis, he started his independent career at The Chinese University of Hong Kong (CUHK) as a Research Assistant Professor at the end of 2007. Now he is Associate Professor in South University of Science and Technology of China (SUSTC) in 2013 and Honorary AP of CUHK. He is the recipient of The Croucher Foundation Fellowship of Hong Kong, Asian Core Program Lectureship Award from both Japan in 2010 and Singapore in 2011, Thousand Young Talents Program Award from the Chinese central government in 2012, recognized As Overseas High-Caliber Personnel from Shenzhen in 2013,and å ª ACS Excellence in Science Symposium: The Journal of Organic Chemistry and Organic Letters Best Poster in 2013.
