Yafang Cheng

Yafang Cheng leads the independent Minerva Research Group “Aerosol, Air Quality and Climate” at the Max Planck Institute for Chemistry since 2014. She and her group are developing and combining innovative experimental methods and multi-scale modeling tools to understand key processes that drive the formation and transformation of atmospheric aerosols. The overall goal is to obtain a predictive understanding of the origin, fate and impact of atmospheric aerosols to address the grand challenge of actionable projection of future climate and environment in the Anthropocene.
