Yadong Yin obtained his BS (1996) and MS (1998) in Chemistry from the University of Science and Technology of China, and then received his PhD in Materials Science and Engineering from the University of Washington in 2002. He then worked as a postdoctoral fellow at the University of California, Berkeley, and the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (LBNL). After serving as a staff scientist at LBNL for one year, he joined the Department of Chemistry at the University of California, Riverside as an assistant professor in 2006. His research interests include materials chemistry, surface and colloidal chemistry, and self-assembly processes, with a focus particularly on nanostructured materials and their photonic, bioanalytical, and catalytic applications.
