Zhou is director of the Xi'an AMS Center, China. She has also been director of the Institute of Earth Environment and the State Key Laboratory, Chinese Academy of Sciences. She obtained her PhD in geology and was awarded The First National Prize for the One Hundred Most Outstanding PhD Theses by the Ministry of Education, China. She has pioneered the development of chronostratigraphic and geochemical tracer techniques using loess 10Be and 14C for Quaternary studies and revolutionized the understandings of north-south hemisphere interactions and geomagnetic excursion or reversal processes. She has been awarded two National Prizes (numbers 2 and 3) in Natural Science and five number 1 State Prizes in Advanced Science and Technology. Her international experience includes associate editor, Radiocarbon Journal(now editorial member), and panel member, PAGES/CLIVAR working group (2004-08).

Wang is a biochemist and molecular biologist. She is research professor at the Inst. of Biochemistry and Cell Biology, Shanghai Institutes for Biological Sciences, Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS). She obtained her MSc (enzymology, 1981) at the former Shanghai Inst. of Biochemistry. She has studied the interaction between enzyme and nucleic acid and has made an essential contribution to the study on interaction between aminoacyl-tRNA synthetases（aaRSs） and tRNAs. Using biochemical and molecular biological methods, she has explored amino acid and nucleotide residues in aminoacylation and editing functions of aaRSs from prokaryote to human. Her research has advanced understanding about the accuracy of protein biosynthesis based on interaction between aaRSs and tRNAs, the co-revolution of aaRSs/tRNA, and the mechanism of disease-associated mutations of tRNAs in mitochondria.
