Department of Chemistry hosted the 30th Symposium on Chemistry Postgraduate Research in Hong Kong in hybrid mode on 6 April 2024 (Saturday). 

Six talented postgraduate student representatives from six Hong Kong Universities delivered insightful presentations to introduce their corresponding projects. We would like to congratulate all winners on Best Poster Presentation Award and Mr. Jingyuan Chen from the University of Hong Kong on receiving Best Oral Presentation Award.

This symposium has attracted overwhelming response from participants who are familiar with the field of chemistry and has provided a great opportunity for postgraduate students to apply their knowledge and exchange research ideas.

In the afternoon, Prof. Lutz Ackermann from Georg-August-University Göttingen has conducted a Keynote Lecture on ‘Catalyzed C–H Functionalization'. Prof. Ackermann was pleased to share his experience and perspectives on the applications of C-H activation to material sciences and drug discovery.

We want to thank all participants, presenters, faculty members and Prof. Ackermann for joining this symposium and giving us this fruitful and meaningful sharing and presentation. We hope this symposium can encourage students to engage in knowledge sharing.

Hope to see you next year!
