Dr. Guo received his B.S. in Material Science and Engineering from Fudan University in China, and Ph.D. in Applied Sciences from University of California-Davis. His research group at CMU is working on an interdisciplinary field where efforts from biochemists, synthetic chemists, physicists, and spectroscopists are joined together to understand the mechanisms of chemical transformations catalyzed by enzymes. The chemical principles discovered through his research will help improve the technologies needed to make the transition to a sustainable energy future and enrich scientific knowledge in fighting disease.
