Dr. Liangli (Lucy) Yu is a professor in the Department of Nutrition and Food
Science at the University of Maryland, College Park, Maryland; she also served as
a “Zhi-Yuan” chair professor in the School of Agriculture and Biology at Shanghai
Jiao Tong University. Her research focuses on food safety chemistry, and the chem-
istry and biochemistry of nutraceuticals and functional foods. Dr. Yu is a leading
food chemist in nontargeted detection of food chemical hazards, food adulteration
detection, the chemical mechanisms involved in toxicant formation during food pro-
cessing, and molecular and cellular food toxicology. In addition, Dr. Yu’s group has
contributed significantly to food antioxidant, food oxidation and antioxidation, and
nutraceuticals and functional food chemistry.
Dr. Yu earned her PhD in food science/food chemistry from Purdue University.
She also earned an MS in medicinal chemistry and a BS in pharmaceutical chemis-
try from the China Pharmaceutical University, Nanjing, China. Dr. Yu has more than
140 research articles published/accepted in refereed scientific journals, along with

sulfur-containing meat flavors and developed a series of manufacturing technologies
for many important meat flavors in China. He also developed the preparation con-
cept for Chinese characteristic meat flavorings, that is, “the identical origin of aroma
with raw material,” and crucial techniques for preparing meat flavorings based on
meat, bone, and fat. He has many great achievements in sulfur-containing flavors

and savory flavorings and was awarded second prize for the National Technologic
Invention from State Council of the People’s Republic of China and two second prizes
for the National Scientific and Technologic Progress. He has been granted 15 inven-
tion patents and published 9 academic books and over 300 articles. He was honored
as an Academician of Chinese Academy of Engineering in 2009. In addition, he is
also dedicated to various administration affairs. He is vice president of the Beijing
Technology and Business University and serves in many nongovernmental organi-
zations concurrently, including vice president of the China National Light Industry
Council, vice president of the Chinese Institute of Food Science and Technology,
vice executive director of the China Association of Fragrance Flavor and Cosmetic
Industries, vice president of the China Food Additives and Ingredients Association,
and vice director of the China Fermentation Industry Association, among others.
Dr. Shuo Wang is a “Cheung Kong Scholar” chair professor and president of Tianjin
University of Science and Technology, Tianjin, China. His research focuses on fun-
damental theory and technology on rapid analysis of trace-level hazardous chemicals
in foods and on the formation of hazardous chemicals and their control techniques in
food processing. Dr. Wang earned his PhD and MS in agricultural chemistry from
the University of Sydney in 1999 and 1994, respectively. He also earned a BS in envi-
ronmental biology in 1991 from Nankai University, Tianjin, China. Dr. Wang has
had more than 270 publications (over 150 in internationally peer-reviewed scientific
journals), along with 6 book/book chapters, 9 Chinese patents, 35 invited talks, and
a number of conference presentations. Dr. Wang has received dozens of scholarly
awards including second prize from the National Science and Technology Progress
Award by the Chinese Government (2012), first prize from the Tianjin Science and
Technology Progress Award by Tianjin Municipal Government (2010), second prize
from the Science and Technology Progress Award by the National Education Ministry
(2009), second prize from the Tianjin Natural Science Award by Tianjin Municipal
Government (2009), second prize from the Science and Technology Progress Award
by Tianjin Municipal Government (2005, 2008). He was also awarded the National
Natural Science Funds for Distinguished Young Scholars of China, Distinguished
Professor by Tianjin Municipal Government, among others. He is an editorial board
member for the Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry (American Chemical
Society), LWT-Food Science and Technology (Elsevier), and several Chinese peer-
reviewed journals such as Food Science, Food Research and Development, Food
and Machinery, Food Safety, Journal of Chinese Institute of Food Science and
Technology, and Food Industry and Technology.
