Dr. Lu Yang is a research officer at National Research Council of Canada (NRC, Ottawa, Canada), leading research in applications of inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) and MC-ICP-MS. Her research focuses on the development of the most accurate and precise methodologies for the determination, speciation and isotopic analysis of trace elements using ICP-MS and MC-ICP-MS. The isotopic measurements for mercury, germanium and indium from her lab have been adopted by IUPAC as the best available isotopic composition measurements in the 2011 Table, and the 2011 atomic weights of mercury and germanium are based on her results. Dr. Yang has published over 100 research papers.
Dr. Yang is a member of the IUPAC Subcommittee on Stable Isotope Reference Material Assessment under the Inorganic Division, and the Commission on Isotopic Abundances and Atomic Weights. She is a NRC’s representative at the Inorganic Analysis Working Group of CCQM (Consultative Committee for Amount of Substance) of the BIPM (International Bureau of Weights and Measures). She is an Editorial Board member of JAAS and Spectroscopy. She is a member of RSC and serves as the director of Ottawa Valley for the Canadian Society for Analytical Sciences and Spectroscopy.
