On March 25, 2021, Prof. Chuang SHI from Beihang University was invited to the 53th Science Lecture of College of Science, SUSTech. He gave a talk on the research and prospect of Beidou high-precision positioning, navigation and timing.

On March 18, 2021, Prof. Kelin GAO from the Innovation Academy for Precision Measurement Science and Technology, CAS was invited to the 52th Science Lecture. He gave a talk on The 40Ca+ ION Optical Clock, which was chaired by Prof. Xueming YANG, an academician of Chinese Academy of Sciences and dean of College of Science, SUSTech.

Knowledge of surface properties leads to design of highly efficient catalysts that avoid the ubiquitous Sabatier conflict.

By imitating the cooperative weak bond catalysis mode commonly found in biological enzymes, Prof. Deng Li’s research group has successfully developed a series of new chiral organic small molecule catalysts and found new reactions.

Through experimental research, Prof. WANG’ s research group developed a brand-new strategy of “cross-bay bridge” and a multi-tiered intramolecular reaction method, making full use of the pre-organized single ring structure and cone conformation of the Resor aromatics . By equipping the Soarene’s "Bay Area" with suitable reaction groups, 4 or 6 chemical bridge reactions across the "Bay Area" are realized and ring-belt molecules with different types of skeleton structures are efficiently constructed.

Supramolecular polymer is one of the most important research directions in the field of chemical self-assembly. It is formed by polymer/small molecule elements (functionality≥2) through non-covalent bond self-assembly polymerization. It shows great potential to be applied in degradable, responsive, self-healing materials and other fields.
