On 13th March, Professor Donal DC Bradley, head of the Mathematical, Physical and Life Sciences Division of Oxford University, honorary professor of NanjingTech and co-director of the "111" Talent Recruitment Base joined a meeting with President Huang Wei at NanjingTech. The meeting featured discussion on the establishment of NanjingTech-Oxford joint laboratory and the launch of a bilateral symposium.

Professor Bradley introduced the Oxford Suzhou Center for Advanced Research (OSCAR) as a foundation for the joint laboratory, which would play a vital role in talent training and cooperation between two universities in frontier areas including flexible electronics, nano-materials, bio-engineering, information-engineering and environmental technology.

President Huang Wei endorsed Professor Bradley’s idea and added that a regular NanjingTech-Oxford Symposium would also bring substantial benefits to this win-win cooperation.

Also during the meeting, Professor Donal DC Bradley was presented with the Award for Outstanding Contribution in International Cooperation issued by Mr. Shi Taifeng, Jiangsu Governor.
