Yaoli Zhao

The 2023 winner of the ECS Sensor Division Student Research Award is Yaoli Zhao of the University of Buffalo for her contributions to developing a new method for standoff and point detection of chemicals by combining photothermal and photoacoustic effects with microfabricated cantilever beams to simultaneously achieve very high molecular selectivity and very high sensitivity.  She will be recognized at the 245th ECS Meeting in San Francisco, CA, and deliver her award talk there.

Yaoli Zhao is a PhD student working in Thomas Thundat’s University at Buffalo lab, specializing in the field of chemical detection. Her current research focuses on developing innovative standoff detection sensors, specifically for plastic classification. Zhao successfully developed techniques and demonstrated methods for molecular identification of plastics, which resulted in the publication of multiple research papers in refereed journals including one as a corresponding author in the Journal of The Electrochemical Society.

A hot topic and emerging technology in the scientific community is the development of biosensors for organ-on-chip (OOC) devices. As research on OOCs continues expanding, so does the pressing need to integrate novel sensing approaches beyond spectroscopic, enzymatic, and voltametric platforms. There is a concurrent and growing need for scholarly content that supports advances in disease model development, drug screening, toxicology, pathogenesis studies, efficacy testing, and virology. Help The Electrochemical Society disseminate content in this area by making us your home for publishing gold open-access content on biosensors for OOCs. Reviews, perspectives, methods, and research articles on this topic are welcome. Submit today!

Following the great success of the highly cited reviews published in the first Sensor Reviews focus issue, the Journal of The Electrochemical Society is publishing a follow-up focus issue, Sensor Reviews II. The second edition of the focus issue highlights the current state of the art regarding the (micro/nano) fabrication of electrochemical sensors devices, including the adoption of nanomaterials, synthetic receptors, smart and porous materials, 3D architectures, AI and machine learning tools, to be applied to clinical, environmental, pharmaceutical, agri-food, and industrial fields.
