Bio Jingsong Huang received his Bachelor degree in Chemistry from Southwest China Normal University (currently known as Southwest University), Chongqing, China and his Master degree in Physical Chemistry from Nankai University, Tianjin, China. Afterwards he worked as an engineer at the Southwest Research & Design Institute of Chemical Industry, Chengdu, China. His initial background was experimental Organic Chemistry and Physical Chemistry. Since 1999 he decided to pursue theoretical research using quantum chemistry. He received his Ph D in Physical Chemistry from Georgetown University in 2006. Research interests are mainly the theoretical studies of the electronic, optical, and magnetic properties of solid-state and nanophase materials, chemical reaction mechanism, and electrical energy storage. With a background of an experimental chemist and the expertise of a computational and theoretical chemist, his primary goal is to establish the bridge between experimental observations and theoretical rationalizations, which will hopefully lend supports for experimental materials optimizations.
