Li CUI received her undergraduate degree from Tsinghua University, China, in 1985 and the MSc degree from the Institute of Semiconductors, Chinese Academy of Sciences, in 1988, where she worked on solid state and electrochemical sensors. She received the Ph.D. Degree in electronic nose application from the University of Glasgow, UK, in 1999. She was a visiting scholar in the Department of Chemistry at the University of Toronto, Canada, in 1994. In 1995, she worked as a Royal Society Fellow and, from 1996 to 2003, a Research Associate in the Department of Electronics and Electrical Engineering at the University of Glasgow on electronic noses, Lab-on-a-Chip and microsystem integration. She is currently a Professor and the leader of an interdisciplinary research group at the Institute of Computing Technology, Chinese Academy of Sciences. Her current research is focused on sensor technology and wireless sensor networks which span wide related technical areas, including research and development on smart front-end chemical sensors, embedded sensor node system and system-on-a-chip, wireless network protocols, sensor network management and safety, as well as sensor network applications.
