Bio: Professor Du is currently a tenure-track assistant professor of chemical and environmental engineering at the University of California, Riverside and leads the Nanobiosensing, Nanomanufacturing, and Nanomaterials (3N) Lab. Before joining UCR in 2022, he was an assistant professor of mechanical engineering at the Rochester Institute of Technology. Du conducted postdoctoral training at the University of California, Berkeley with Rich A. Mathies and obtained his Ph.D. degree from Stevens Institute of Technology (NJ).
His group has published papers in journals such as ACS Applied Materials & Interfaces, Advanced Materials Technologies, Advanced Materials Interfaces, Advanced Functional Materials, ACS Infectious Diseases, ACS Omega, ACS Sensors, Biosensors and Bioelectronics, Electrophoresis, Journal of Colloid and Interface Science, Langmuir, Lab on a Chip, Nanotechnology, Optics Express, and Scientific Reports and has been widely covered by popular media including Science Daily, Yahoo Finance, The Science Times, and EurekAlert.
Du has been recognized as one of the twenty five global rising stars in sensing by ACS Sensors, a special issue celebrating early stage investigators. He has also been the recipient of the NIH Maximizing Investigators’ Research Award (2021), the Burroughs Wellcome Fund (BWF) Collaborative Travel Grant (2019), the National Science Foundation (NSF) Graduate Student Fellowship (2012), James H. Potter Award (2014), and Stevens Innovation & Entrepreneur (IE) Fellowship (2009–2014). He was the only recipient worldwide of the 2017 Biosensors Travel Award and one of only two recipients worldwide of the 2017 Micromachines Travel Award.
Du’s research is supported by NIH, NSF, USDA, DOE, The UNYTE Translational Research Network, and industry partners such as Mammoth Biosciences, L3Harris, Colgate Palmolive, and Biological Mimetics.
