James, Charl and others from the BCFN in China!
A large group from the Bristol Centre for Functional Nanomaterials, including James (joint PhD student with Heinrich Hoerber) and Charl are currently in Beijing, China. They participated in a joint symposium on Tuesday with the CAS National Centre for Nanoscience and Technology on Monday (see the photo below), and are currently attending the ChinaNANO’13 conference.
On Monday they will visit our collaborators at the Department of Chemistry at Tsinghua University for the “1st Tsinghua-Bristol Joint Nanoscience Symposium”
Charl at the College of Chemistry, Jilin University, Changchun
Charl arrived in Changchun on Wednesday afternoon, and started with a full day of lectures on Thursday, covering the topics of scientific misconduct and scientific writing in two 2h lectures! More than 300 graduate students attended the lectures, and extra chairs were brought into the lecture hall!
Here he can be seen relaxing with Prof Junqi Sun (vice-dean of the College of Chemistry, who invited Charl) and some of his research group members after his lectures.
Charl in the US
Charl is on a short trip to the US, visiting DuPont as part of the SoC’s Year in Industry undergrad programme, as well as the Institute of Molecular Engineering at the University of Chicago to give a seminar.
Seminar day!
Both Tom and Charl were out and about today, giving talks. Tom spoke at the Xmas beamline user meeting in Liverpool on his TANI-surfactant structure investigations, while Charl gave a research seminar at the School of Chemistry in Leeds.
Tsinghua Xuetang lectures at an end…
After a number of lectures introducing liquid crystals and soft matter to the undergraduate students from the Department of Chemistry at Tsinghua University, Charl’s time in China is slowly coming to an end.
Here a photo of Charl with some of the students who joined the course! Thanks to everyone who contributed to make this a very enjoyable experience!
Talk at Jilin University, Changchun
Charl gave a research seminar at the State Key Laboratory of Supramolecular Structure and Materials at the College of Chemistry, Jilin University today.
Here he can be seen after his talk with Professor Sun (deputy head of the College).
Charl in China…
Charl has been in China for the past two weeks, lecturing at the Department of Chemistry, Tsinghua University, in their Tsinghua Xuetang programme for undergraduate students (“Introduction to Liquid Crystals and Soft Matter”), as well as joining in discussion with Prof Xi Zhang and his group on various collaborative projects.
He has just arrived in snowy Changchun today, where he will give a research seminar at the College of Chemistry, Jilin University, invited by Prof Junqi Sun.
Saravanan at ICONN 2013 conference, INDIA
Image
Saravanan attended the International conference on nanoscience and nanotechnology (ICONN2013), held in Chennai, India (18-20 March 2013). This excellent conference was organized by SRM university. Saravanan presented the latest results from his research (”Liquid-crystalline tetra(aniline)s for photovoltaic applications”). This was an excellent opportunity to meet the national and international scientists and students from various parts of the world (India, Japan, New Zealand, Mexico, Switzerland, Ireland, USA, Germany, etc).
It was a very good trip!!!!
