Guo-Xin Jin was born in April 1959. He studied chemistry at Nanjing University and received his M.S. in organic chemistry in 1984 and his Ph.D. degree in inorganic Chemistry in 1987 at the same University. After post-doctor stay at University of Bayreuth with Prof. M.Herberhold (Alexander von Humboldt Fellow) in Germany, in 1996 he joined the Changchun Institute of Applied Chemistry, Chinese Academy of Sciences to start his independent research and became professor. He moved to Shanghai and works in Chemistry Department of Fudan University as a Cheung Kong Professor in 2001 and he is also chair professor in Inorganic Chemistry Institute. Now He is the Regional Associate-Editor of Dalton Transaction, and also joined the editorial board of some professional journals, such as Organometallics, Journal of Organometallic Chemistry, Chinese Journal of Inorganic Chemistry, Chinese Journal of Applied Chemistry and Chinese Science Bulletin. His research interests are catalysts for olefin polymerization and organometallic complexes. He has published more than 200 papers, reviews, and communications, and have 7 US Patents, 41 China Patents.
