On the afternoon of June 1, Professor Qi Wu of the Chinese University of Hong Kong, Academician of the Chinese Academy of Sciences came to the school at the invitation of Professor Jiaping Lin, executive vice president of the graduate school, and gave an academic report entitled our directions in the next five to ten years. The report meeting was presided over by Professor Jiaping Lin. Professor Annah, Zheng, Professor Meidong Lang, Associate Professor Shaoliang Lin, Associate Professor Yong Guan, and many graduate students attended the report.
Professor Wu is currently a fellow of the American Physical Society and an academician of the Chinese Academy of Sciences. He is a doctoral supervisor in chemistry at the Chinese University of Hong Kong and the University of science and technology of China. He is also a visiting or part-time professor at Nankai University, Lanzhou University, Zhejiang University, Fudan University, Wuhan University, and the Shanghai Institute of Organic Chemistry, Chinese Academy of Sciences, and an honorary researcher at the Institute of Chemistry, Chinese Academy of Sciences. He is also the editorial board member of Acta Polymerica Sinica, Chinese Journal of Chemical Physics, Chinese Journal of Applied Chemistry, Polymer, Macromolecules, and Langmuir. He has published more than 260 academic papers (including 94 papers published on Macromolecules) on JACS, Accounts of Chemical Research, Advances in Polymer Science, and Physical Review Letters.
Professor Wu started from the two unsolved problems of polymers. He firstly expounded the influencing factors of linear, star, and many other polymers with different configurations passing through the slit. Then, Professor Wu talked about one of the hottest field today, core-shell nanowires, and he assumed the applications of the spinning of polymer core-shell nanowires. He encouraged the present teachers and students to participate in this kind of research. At last, Professor Wu introduced the research plan of his group in three biological fields, man-made viruses, protein, and stem cells.
