Join ACS Publications for a webinar on cutting-edge sensor technology and discover the exceptional properties and applications of boron-doped diamond (BDD) electrochemical sensors in healthcare and environmental monitoring. Then, learn about innovative nanozyme systems for identifying analytes in complex mediums, offering advantages like low cost and high stability. Hear from Prof. Hui Wei and Prof. Julie Macpherson, two of the winners of the 2025 Advances in Measurement Science Lectureship Awards.
Speakers
Prof. Hui Wei, Professor, College of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Nanjing University, China, Prof. Hui Wei is the recipient of the AMSLA for the Asia-Pacific region and is known for his significant contributions in the fields of functional nanomaterials, nanozymes, and biosensing technologies. A notable application of his nanozyme sensor arrays was in the fingerprint-style identification of analytes in complex mediums, including small biomolecules in blood samples, proteins in urine samples, and pesticides in soil. These nanoyzyme systems are revolutionizing conventional artificial enzymes due to their numerous advantages over both natural enzymes and conventional artificial enzymes, such as low cost, high stability, and multi-functionality.
Prof. Julie Macpherson, Professor of Chemistry, Warwick University, United Kingdom, Prof. Julie Macpherson is the recipient of the AMSLA for the EMEA region and is recognized for her pioneering work in electroanalytical chemistry � specifically on the development of boron-doped diamond (BDD) electrochemical sensors, which are used for applications in healthcare and environmental monitoring. These BDD-based materials have exceptional properties, such as chemical robustness, wide aqueous solvent window, and the ability to fabricate a variety of electrodes in sizes and shapes.
