　　Biography：DrYanping Sun hold B.Eng. in Chemical Engineering and M.Eng. in Applied Chemistry from Dalian University of Technology, and PhD in Chemistry from University of New England, Australia. She worked as a Postdoctoral Research Fellow at the University of Regina, Canada for two and a half years prior to joining CSIRO, Australia in 2006. Since 2006, she has worked for CSIRO as Research/Senior Scientist in solar thermal group in the following research areas: advanced reforming catalysts for solar reforming application, novel high temperature water-gas-shift catalysts for coal and biomass gasification, high temperature thermal storage materials for solar thermal energy storage and high temperature and corrosion-resistance coatings for solar thermal application. She has published numerous journal papers with high impact factors and hold two patents.
