Prof. Vivian W.-W. Yam from the University of Hong Kong (HKU), member of the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS), visited the Lanzhou Institute of Chemical Physics (LICP) of the CAS on August 6. During her visit, she gave a lecture entitled Design and Assembly Strategies Towards Photofunctional Metal-Based Molecular Materials which introduced design and assembly strategies towards new inorganic molecular luminescent materials and chemical sensors.

After the lecture, Prof. Yam visited the exhibition room of the LICP, State Key Laboratory for Oxo Synthesis and Selective Oxidation, State Key Laboratory of Solid Lubrication and CAS Key Laboratory of Chemistry of Northwestern Plant Resources. She then heard reports about the introduction and research of the CAS Key Laboratory of Chemistry of Northwestern Plant Resources made by Prof. SHI Yanping and Prof. SHAO Shijun. She also shared her experience in cultivation of doctoral students, application for projects, thesis writing and publication, etc, with researchers and students of the LICP.

Prof. Yam, Philip Wong Wilson Wong Professor in Chemistry and Energy, and Chair of Chemistry of the HKU, obtained her Bachelor and PhD degrees from HKU in 1985 and 1988 respectively. Her main area of research is in inorganic/organometallic syntheses and photochemistry related to luminescence and solar energy conversion. In 2001 she was elected as a member of the CAS and in 2006 she was elected as a fellow of the Academy of Sciences for the Developing World (TWAS). She is also the vice editor-in-chief of Inorg. Chem., editorial committee member or editorial advisory board member of Coord. Chem. Rev., New J. Chem., etc. She has been named as recipient of the world-renowned “Women in Science Awards 2011” which was co-founded by the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) and the L’Oreal Group in 1998 for her contribution in light-emitting materials and innovative ways of capturing solar energy.
