Xiaogang Qu The author presented on this page has published more than 10 articles in Angewandte Chemie in the last 10 years, most recently: “A Multinuclear Metal Complex Based DNase-Mimetic Artificial Enzyme: Matrix Cleavage for Combating Bacterial Biofilms”: Z. Chen, H. Ji, C. Liu, W. Bing, Z. Wang, X. Qu, Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. 2016, 55, 10732; Angew. Chem. 2016, 128, 10890. The work of X. Qu has been featured on the inside back cover of Angewandte Chemie: “Deciphering a Nanocarbon-Based Artificial Peroxidase: Chemical Identification of the Catalytically Active and Substrate-Binding Sites on Graphene Quantum Dots”: H.

My favorite saying is that “well begun is half done”. The most significant historic event of the past 100 years was deciphering DNA double-stranded structure. I am waiting for the day when someone will discover a cure for neural degenerative disease. Last time I went to the pub it was with colleagues and students to celebrate our team winning the institute table tennis championship. If I could be anyone for a day, I would be Superman, so I can help thousands of people within a matter of minutes. My favorite author (science) is Louis de Broglie. My favorite band is Beyond. My favorite book is The Grand Design (Steven Hawking and Leonard Mlodinow). My motto is “be yourself, be happy”. The greatest scientific advance of the last decade was CRISPR/Cas technology. If I could be described as an animal it would be a bald eagle. My 5 top papers: References 1“Carboxyl-modified single-walled carbon nanotubes selectively induce human telomeric i-motif formation”: X.
