Haoshen Zhou Date of birth: October 29, 1964 Position: Professor, National Institute of Advanced Industrial Science and Technology (AIST), Tsukuba, and Nanjing University E-mail: hs.zhou@aist.go.jp; hszhou@nju.edu.cn Homepage: https://unit.aist.go.jp/ieco/ Education: 1985 BS, Physics Department, Nanjing University 1994 PhD with Prof. Hiroshi Komiyama, The University of Tokyo 1994–1997 Postdoctoral fellow with Prof. Hiroyuki Sasabe, RIKEN Research: Energy technology; energy transfer; energy storage materials and devices; rechargeable batteries; fuel cells; solar cells Hobbies: History, reading, walking, traveling, playing the game of Go My favorite painter is Pablo Picasso. My favorite book is The Complete Sherlock Holmes. If I had one year of paid leave I would spend more time with my family. The principal aspects of my personality are precision and diligence. When I was eighteen I wanted to be a historian. My favorite drinks are water and tea. The most important future applications of my research are electric vehicles and smart grids for energy storage. In a spare hour, I read historical articles or novels. If I could be any age, I would be a university student. I could take interesting courses not only in physics, chemistry, and engineering, but also in history, sociology, and art. My biggest inspiration is discussions with my students and colleagues. My favorite time of day is morning. I admire the use of a simple concept to solve a complex problem. My favorite way to spend a holiday is traveling with my wife and reading her poems, prose, and essays. My science “heroes” are every young student. All of you can be science “heroes” if you enjoy discovery. My 5 top papers: References 1“A reversible long-life lithium–air battery in ambient air”: T. Zhang, H. Zhou, Nat. Commun. 2013, 4, 1817.
