All the talks are exciting that reflect a spirit of cooperation and reciprocity intended to be of mutual benefit to both institutions and contributions to an enduring institutional linkage between two universities.
Materials to help transition to clean hydrogen fuel.
We study a catalyst for low-cost, high-performance water splitting. The ability of plants harvest sunlight and split water into hydrogen and oxygen through photosynthesis has attracted the interests of scientists who sought to replicate the process to capture hydrogen as a renewable and sustainable fuel source,

After the 2018 UOW-BUAA Joint Workshop, our group and all the representatives participating in the seminar had a wonderful trip to Jervis Bay on the NSW South Coast, where is a perfect seaside escape. From the crystal-blue waters and resident dolphins to splendid beaches and fun water sports, this coastal paradise in the Shoalhaven region delight us with many memorable experiences.
Group Journey (29/10/2018-02/11/2018)
At the end of the year 2018, our group had a wonderful journey to the island of Tasmania as it is so attractive and amazing. On the first day, we flied to its gorgeous capital city, Hobart, the home to one of the world's most intriguing art galleries, and visited the Mount Wellington and historical site Port Auther. Passing by the National Park of Freycinet where we hiked for about 6hs and the Bicheno where we saw the pretty little blue penguines, finally we arrived at northern Launceston, one of the few cities on the planet to be wrapped around a gorge. The only pity is that the lavenders in Bridestowe Lavender Farm did not blossom at that time. But imperfection is also beauty as it will be a good reason to revisit the beautiful island in the future days.

Tasmania again! Our group had great leisure on the Carnival Spirit whose size is almost the same as the Titanic. The food were amazing and deliciou, staff were smiling and happy, activities are abundant and various. There was also music and dancing and energy.During the 5-day journey, we had enough time to play, retreat or relax, including hot spring, killing Werewolf, Doube Upgrade and so on. And an unforgettable visit to the University of Tasmania, Salamanca Market, Tasmanian Museum and Art Gallery, and Chinese traditional restaurant in Hobart. Private time to be alone, and authentic-time to share with others. What more could you ask for!

New Year Dinner (24/01/2020)
Our group had a great dinner in our group leader's house as in previous years. The big meal included crabs, prawns, seabass, chicken with special flavors, and variable fresh fruits. The twins performed mouth organs, and the other people played cards and watched the Spring Festival Happy Together Evening Show. Finally, we had the new year dumpling at midnight. What a wonderful new year!
