If I could be a piece of lab equipment, I would be a UHV-FTIRS apparatus. My science “heroes” are my students and colleagues. My favorite painter is Vincent Willem van Gogh. My favorite piece of music is Rondo Capriccioso (Felix Mendelssohn Bartholdy) played by my son Felix. The greatest scientific advance of the last decade was the discovery of gravitational waves as predicted by Albert Einstein. If I were not a scientist, I would be a poet. Young people should study chemistry because it is such a beautiful field with endless challenges. My favorite drinks are tea and coffee. My biggest inspiration is my wife Baoyan. I advise my students to enjoy science and work hard for their dreams. My favorite way to spend a holiday is hiking with my family.
