SUMMARY:Advancing the Frontiers of Science and Technology with Chemistry
DESCRIPTION:Wonder how exciting chemistry can be? Join our e-Research Talk\, “Advancing the frontiers of science and technology with Chemistry” held on 20 February 2021\, 10am – 11.30am on Zoom.  Our professors will share how chemistry has brought them to explore the vast natural world and create new innovations for humankind in exciting ways.  The talk is especially tailored for pre-University students.  All students and teachers are welcome. \nRegister here using your school email account by 18 February 2021\, 5pm to join the session (first come\, first served basis). \n\n  \nAbout the Speakers:\nProfessor Chua Lay-Lay \n \n\n​Professor Chua is the Assistant Head of Department Chemistry  (Graduate) and the Director of Organic Nano Device Laboratory at NUS. She received her B.Sc. degree in Chemistry from National University of Singapore. She completed her Ph.D. in Physics at the University of Cambridge in 2007.   She began her independent academic career at National University of Singapore in 2008. She serves as associate editor of Journal of Materials Chemistry C. Prior to her academic career\, she worked in Semiconductor industry in Singapore; she was a member of Technical Staff at Bell Laboratories\, Lucent Technologies\, New Jersey\, USA; Research Associate at University of Cambridge and also Research Fellow at National University of Singapore.  Her research interests focus on materials and processing development to advance the science and technology of polymer organic semiconductors including organic polymer−graphene hybrids for advanced applications in organic electronics\, polymer thermal electric generators and batteries\, and also nonlinear optics. \n  \nAssistant Professor Wu Jie \n\n \n\nDr Wu has joined the Department of Chemistry\, NUS as an assistant professor since 2015. Prior to that\, he worked as a senior scientist in Snapdragon Chemistry Inc. at Boston which is established by his postdoc advisor Prof. Timothy Jamison for half a year. He did his postdoctoral in the Department of Chemistry and Chemical Engineering at MIT\, working with Prof. Timothy Jamison and Prof. Alan Hatton. His postdoctoral research was aimed at utilizing CO2 as a green C1 source to synthesize useful chemicals in continuous flow reactors. Dr Wu was awarded the Young Scientist Award 2020 by the Faculty of Science\, NUS. His research interests have broadly and deeply involved in two research fields of organic synthesis\, including photocatalysis and continuous-flow automated synthesis. In his spare time\, Dr Wu likes to play basketball and badminton. \n  \n\n\nAssistant Professor Winston Zhao \n\n  \n \n\nDr Zhao is the second President’s Assistant Professor in the Department of Chemistry\, NUS. He received his pre-university education in Singapore\, before heading to Caltech for his undergraduate studies on the National Science Scholarship\, where he obtained double B.S. degrees with honors in Chemistry and Biology. He completed his Ph.D. in Biophysics at the Harvard University under the mentorship of Sunney Xie. Since returning to Singapore\, he has conducted postdoctoral research at the Institute of Molecular and Cell Biology and the Genome Institute of Singapore\, before joining the Department. His research focuses on the development and application of advanced imaging-based approaches to quantitatively probe the biophysical chemistry of chromatin dynamics at the single-cell level. In particular\, he is interested in understanding how molecular processes related to chromatin structure\, accessibility\, and expression are organized and regulated in space and time. By integrating approaches from optical microscopy and spectroscopy\, genome and protein engineering\, and computational analysis\, his work aims to illuminate the physico-chemical driving forces that underpin the spatio-temporal heterogeneities in chromatin dynamics\, as well as the physiological implications of their misregulation in human diseases.
