Dr. Zhiqiang Shen is an observational radio astronomer at Shanghai Astronomical Observatory with expertise on VLBI technique and its application in astrophysics. His main research interests include: Investigation of the super-massive black hole at the Galactic Centre with radio observations and numerical simulations; (Space-)VLBI study of the central parsec region of Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN); High-resolution VLBI imaging of masers (e.g., methanol masers); VLBI astrometry of pulsars. Dr. Shen currently serves as project scientist for the Shanghai TianMa 65-m Radio Telescope.
Dr. Tie Liu is an observational radio astronomer at Shanghai Astronomical Observatory with expertise on (sub)millimeter observations with both single dishes (e.g., JCMT) and interferometers (e.g. ALMA). His main research interests include: (1) Formation and Evolution of High-Mass Protostars (2) The initial conditions of low-mass star formation (3) Herbig Ae/Be stars and their Environments (4) Brown dwarf formation (5) Magnetic fields in molecular clouds (6) VLBI observations of Galactic masers (7) Star formation law in Galactic clumps and external galaxies (8) Astrochemistry and molecular line surveys. Dr. Liu currently serves as the principle investigators (PI) of several survey programs at the JCMT 15-m telescope, TRAO 14-m radio telescope and The Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA). Dr. Liu is leading an international team including more than 160 experts to systematically investigate the initial conditions of star formation in widely different Galactic environments through observations of thousands of Planck Galactic Cold Clumps with many world-famous radio telescopes (e.g.,ALMA, JCMT 15-m, NRO 45-m, Effelsberg 100-m, IRAM 30-m. SMT, KVN, SMA, SOFIA). Dr. Liu also serves as the referee for main astronomy journals (A&A, ApJ, RAA), and currently he is also member of the Time Allocation Committee (TAC) for the JCMT 15-m telescope and the FAST 500-m telescope.
