Ying HU, a Ph.D. student from the Department of Earth and Space Sciences (ESS) at the Southern University of Science and Technology (SUSTech), has been honored with the SEG/Norman and Shirley Domenico Scholarship.

Ziqing XIANG, Associate Professor of the Department of Mathematics at the Southern University of Science and Technology (SUSTech), was awarded the 2022 Kirkman Medal in recognition of his outstanding contributions in the fields of design theory, algebraic combinatorics, and graph theory.

On August 9, 2023, Prof. Chong FANG from Oregon State University was invited to the 124th Science Lecture in the College of Science.

Among the large family of thermoelectric materials, MnTe-based materials are expected to be a reliable alternative for the large-scale production of medium-temperature materials due to their low toxicity and abundant raw materials. However, the low carrier concentration and low mobility of carriers in MnTe-based thermoelectric materials have limited their applications.

Metal-catalyzed carbon-carbon cross-coupling reactions have evolved into one of the major technologies for C−C bond-forming events. Over the past decades, reductive cross-coupling between two carbon electrophiles has become an attractive alternative for C−C bond-forming due to the sole use of bench-stable and cost-effective carbo-electrophiles as coupling precursors.

Over the last few years, techniques that convert waste energy into a storable form, particularly electricity, have become a promising and sometimes mandatory strategy for industrial and domestic utilities with the release of China’s carbon emission goals.
