Dongmei CUI received her B.S. and M.S. degrees at Dalian University of Technology (1985,1988) and Ph.D at Changchun Institute of Applied Chemistry (CIAC) (2001). She worked as an assistant professor at Shenyang Pharmaceutical University (1988- 1992) and moved to Changchun University of Technology as associate professor (1996) and professor (2002). She was honored JSPS fellowship and worked with Prof. Zhaomin Hou at RIKEN Japan (2002-2004). She was a visiting scholar at Hong Kong Baptist University and a visiting professor at Colorado State University. Since 2005, Prof. Cui has been working at CIAC as a Talent Professor leading the Organometallic and Precisely Controlled Polymerization Lab. She received The Special Government Allowance of the State Council (2012), Zhu Li Yuehua Excellent Teacher Award (2014), CAS-SABIC fellowship (2016) and The First Prize of Nature Science Award of Jinlin province (2020). Her research interests cover developing novel organometallic catalysts to synthesize advanced polyolefins and elastomers from the commonly used large-amount monomers, sustainable polymeric materials from bio-renewable products, and functional macromolecules via coordination copolymerization of polar and nonpolar monomers, and to investigate the relationship between the chain-structures and mechanical properties as well as the mechanisms. She works as an associate editor of Macromolecules since 2022.
