Profile

Dr Guan H. Tang is Reader in Commercial Law, Director of Dual LLM in Commercial Law (London/Singapore), and Co-Lead of Athena Swan Implementation Group at the Centre for Commercial Law Studies, Queen Mary University of London. She was previously Senior Lecturer in Law and Programme Leader for LLM Information Rights & Practice at the Northumbria University. Before that she was Associate Professor of Civil and Commercial Law and Director of the Law Internationalisation at the Shanghai University of Finance and Economics.

Guan’s academic journey started in 1998; she was awarded a scholarship to undertake her Masters at Queen's University Belfast, where she researched information technology and the law with a focus on intellectual property rights in China. She later read law with Sir Professor Hector MacQueen and received her PhD at the University of Edinburgh Law School. She has enlightening academic, managerial and advisory experiences in  the UK and China. Holding an insight about the rule of law in China and its relevance to the rest of the world from a commercial law perspective, her research has a strong theme of comparative intellectual property and technology. Her current project includes artificial intelligence (AI) governance.

Beyond her academic life, Guan is a proud solo mother by choice.
