Dr. Ma joined the Department of Chemistry at USTC in
March 2014. He was a Postdoctoral Associate working
with Professor Robert Langer at MIT. During his
postdoc research, Dr. Ma developed a polymer generator
driven by water gradients, which can harvest energy
from room-temperature water evaporation and convert it
into electric power. While at MIT, he also worked on
the synthesis of therapeutic and diagnostic
nanomaterials for targeted delivery to thrombosis. Dr.
Ma's doctorate research with Professor Dennis Bong at
OSU focused on synthetic molecular recognition motifs
at bio-interfaces, which helps to elucidate the
thermodynamic parameters of lipid membrane fusion
processes. Dr. Ma had also accumulated research
experiences in conducting polymers, electrochemistry
and organometallics chemistry during his education at
Tsinghua University.
