July 16th-17th,2018, the 1st ICFE(International Conference on Flexible Electronics 2018) held in Hangzhou,
China. Ph.D. student Hao Liu from BEBC won the "best Poster Award" in
this conference.
This conference aims
to offer a world’s preeminent forum for reporting methodological and
technological breakthroughs in the areas of flexible electronics, including but
not limited to organic flexible electronics, flexible display, inorganic
flexible electronics, stretchable electronics, flexible power sources,
bio-mimetic electronics, reconfigurable electronics, transient electronics,
bio-integrated electronics, wearable electronics, and soft actuators/robots.
Many academic authorities were invited as plenary
speakers including: John A. Rogers and Yonggang Huang from Northwestern
University, Yunqi Liu from Institute of Chemistry, Chinese Academy of Sciences
and Wei Huang from Northwestern Polytechnical University.
During the discussion section, Liu talked a lot with invited
speaker Roozbeh Ghaffari from Northwestern University on how flexible
electronic devices applied in biochemical diagnosis, which he thought
meaningful and helpful. Thus he encouraged that the new forces of BEBC should strive
harder and grab every opportunity to communicate with or learn from those great
intellectual scholors.
On the presentation
section, Liu’s poster entitled “Human-friendly,
Stretchable and Reusable Hydrogel Electronics”, gained lots of
attention due to its novelty and informative content, and finally rendered him
this honor. Big congratulations!
