Dr. Zhou joined Chemistry Department of Tsinghua University in 1991, received M.Sc. and Ph. D degree from Tsinghua University in 2001 and 2008 respectively. Her research focuses on the applications of molecular vibrational spectroscopy, especially Infrared and Raman spectroscopy and two-dimensional correlation spectroscopy in complex systems. Her research interest involves rapid identification of pathogenic microorganisms, macroscopic quality control of traditional Chinese medicines and foodstuffs, identification of cultural relic. More than 100 papers and four books have been published. In addition, 3 patents have been gained.
