报告一:Crystal Engineering: Then, Now and Next
报告人:Michael J. Zaworotko
      Dr. Mike Zaworotko currently serves as Bernal Chair of Crystal Engineering & Science Foundation of Ireland Research Professor at the University of Limerick, Ireland. He was born in Wales in 1956 and received his B.Sc. and Ph.D. degrees from Imperial College (1977) and the University of Alabama (1982), respectively. He served as a faculty member at Saint Mary’s University, Nova Scotia, Canada, from 1985-1998, at University of Winnipeg, Canada from 1998-99 and at the University of South Florida, USA, from 1999-2013.
      Research activities have focused upon fundamental and applied aspects of crystal engineering since 1990. Currently, metal-organic materials (MOMs), especially microporous and nanoporous sorbents, and multi-component pharmaceutical materials (MPMs) such as cocrystals, hydrates and ionic cocrystals are of particular interest.He currently serves as Associate Editor of the ACS published journal Crystal Growth & Design.


 
报告二:Development of Advanced Porous Materials as a New Platform for Enzyme Immobilization
报告人:Shengqian Ma Department of Chemistry University of South Florida
      Advanced porous materials as represented by metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) and covalent organic frameworks (COFs) represent a new class of crystalline materials, and one of their striking features lies in the tunable, designable, and functionalizablenanospace, which allows designed incorporation of different functionalities for targeted applications, such as gas storage/separation, sensing, drug delivery, catalysis, conductivity. We will discuss the systematic development of MOFs and COFs as a new platform for enzyme immobilization. 
Biographical Sketch:
      Shengqian Ma obtained his B.S. degree from Jilin University, China in 2003, and graduated from Miami University (Ohio) with a Ph.D. degree in 2008. After finishing two-year Director’s Postdoctoral Fellowship at Argonne National Laboratory, he joined the Department of Chemistry at University of South Florida (USF) as an Assistant Professor in August 2010. He was promoted to an Associate Professor with early tenure in 2015 and to a Full Professor in 2018.
      He received the USF Faculty Outstanding Research Achievement Award in 2015 and the USF Outstanding Faculty Award in 2018. He is the recipient of 2014 NSF CAREER Award and has been selected as the Thomson Reuters Highly Cited Researcher in 2014, 2015, 2016, 2017, and 2018; he was also awarded the IUPAC-2015 Young Chemist Travel Award and the 2009 IUPAC Prize for Young Chemists from International Union of Pure & Applied Chemistry (IUPAC); he received the Young Investigator Award from American Chemical Society (ACS) Division of Inorganic Chemistry and the Director’s Postdoctoral Fellowship from Argonne National Laboratory in 2008 as well.
      His current research interest focuses on the development of functional porous materials including metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), covalent organic frameworks (COFs), porous organic polymers (POPs), and microporous carbon materials for energy, biological, environmental-related applications. He has published more than 180 papers (over 140 since independent career) with the total citations over 17600 and the H-index of 66.
