Leading scientists will exchange innovative views on contemporary trends in the chemistry of 2D materials at a three-day online conference co-organised by City University of Hong Kong (CityU) and Nature Conferences, the preeminent series curated by the highly prestigious science journal Nature and Nature journals.

Held from 17 to 19 May, “Nature Conferences - Chemistry of 2D Materials” will be a multidisciplinary forum for sharing research and establishing future research directions. Discussions will focus on the syntheses of 2D materials, as well as their chemical functionalisation.

Speakers from world-leading universities in Asia, Europe and North America, including the University of Cambridge, Tsinghua University, National University of Singapore, Peking University, Imperial College London, and the University of California, Los Angeles, among many others, will lead talks at the conference. 

Professor Zhang Hua, Herman Hu Chair Professor of Nanomaterials at CityU, will be one of the first speakers with a talk titled “Phase Engineering of Nanomaterials”, i.e. the synthesis of nanomaterials with unconventional phases and the phase transformation of nanomaterials.
