Shen Yuancheng Returns for Group Meeting and Research Sharing

On July 23, 2025, the group warmly welcomed a familiar face—former member Shen Yuancheng, who returned to his alma mater to attend the group meeting and deliver an engaging presentation on his recent research progress in the field of heteroatom-modified polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons.

In his talk, Yuancheng shared his scientific ideas and experimental designs in a clear and engaging manner. He also provided valuable insights into experimental details rarely covered in the literature, as well as his personal experiences in overcoming challenges during the research process. His presentation sparked strong interest among group members in this relatively unfamiliar area, leading to lively discussions on experimental methodologies and possible future directions. Many creative ideas emerged from the exchange.

Following the presentation, the meeting continued in a relaxed and cheerful atmosphere. While enjoying pizza, fruits, and other refreshments, the group also engaged in academic discussions on recent literature and casually exchanged views on trends in the field. The meeting blended academic depth with personal connection, expanding everyone’s scientific horizons while strengthening bonds within the group.
