Prof. Jie Huang
Professor of Southwest University, Chongqing, China
Prof. Jie Huang, IEEE Member, male, is currently a professor and PhD Tutor in College of Enigneering and Technology, Southwest University, Chongqing, China. He received the Ph.D degree in Microelectronics and Solid-State Electronics from Institute of Microelectronics of the Chinese Academy of Sciences in 2011. In March 2016, he conducted a one-year visiting study on compound semiconductors and monolithic THz circuits with Professor Jan Stake in the Terahertz and Millimeter Wave Laboratory of Chalmers University of Technology, Sweden. He has been mainly engaged in the research of compound semiconductor microwave devices and monolithic integrated circuits, radio frequency/microwave passive devices and modules, metamaterials, and microwave dielectric sensor. Recent research mainly focuses on measuring the complex permittivity and permeability of solid, liquid and powder materials by use of microwave resonant method, and sensing detection by using electromagnetic resonant absorption of meta-surface absorber, such as detecting water content of emulsified oil and identifying edible oil species. He has presided over 10 projects, including 2 projects from the National Natural Science Foundation of China. He currently have published more than 40 article in the microwave field, such as IEEE Trans. Microw. Theory Tech., IEEE Sensors J., Sensors, J. Electromagnet Wave, Microw. Op tic Tech. Lett., Prog. Electromagn. Res. C(M, Letters), Opt. Quant. Electron., Chin. Phys. B, and he is also a guest reviewer of these microwave journals.

Prof. Domenico Lombardo
Professor of Consiglio Nazionale delle Ricerche (CNR-IPCF) of the Department of Chemical Sciences and Materials Technologies, Italy
Prof. Dr. Domenico Lombardo is a physicist and materials engineer in the Consiglio Nazionale delle Ricerche (CNR-IPCF) of the Department of Chemical Sciences and Materials Technologies (ITALY). He is performing both experimental and theoretical research in the soft matter, drug delivery and biotechnology fields, in collaboration with the industry, major Italian and European research institutions, and international partners. His research activity is focused on: - Study of the self-assembly (and supramolecular) processes of nanostructured and hybrid (inorganic-inorganic) bio-materials. - Study of the soft interaction between nanocarriers and biological (and model) membranes. He is supervisor of a research unit at the CNR-IPCF (Italy), lecturer in several post-graduate courses at University. He has been leading several major research projects that are related to biotechnology, material science and engineering. He has been involved in instrumental development projects within various European laboratories and synchrotron radiation facility (such as Elettra in Trieste-Italy and LURE in Orsay-France). He has been involved in the organization, in the scientific committees and as invited speaker of several workshops, seminars, and national and international conferences. He repeatedly participated at various expert committees at the national and international level. He regularly acts as a consultant, reviewer and editorial board member in various peer-reviewed international scientific journals. He is co-author of over 100 publications of which more than 70 on international peer-reviewed and indexed journals and a number of other publications (conference proceedings, book chapters etc.).
