The Sino-German Science Workshop, held from May 21st to May 23rd, 2024, marked a significant collaboration between Friedrich-Alexander-Universität Erlangen-Nürnberg (FAU) and Jinan University. The event, which attracted about 81 participants, was a hub of scientific exchange and international cooperation, reflecting the deepening ties between the two institutions. The workshop commenced on Tuesday morning with a series of talks from invited speakers, setting a high tone for the event. These initial presentations laid a robust foundation for the scientific discussions that followed, covering a broad range of topics. Experts from both FAU and Jinan University shared their latest research findings, offering insights into diverse scientific fields. The atmosphere was vibrant with intellectual engagement, as participants eagerly absorbed new ideas and forged connections. Wednesday continued with further scientific talks, complemented by a poster session that provided an interactive platform for researchers to present their work. The poster session was particularly noteworthy, fostering in-depth discussions and enabling participants to delve into specifics of the research presented. This interactive segment of the workshop was a highlight, showcasing innovative research and fostering a collaborative spirit among the attendees. The final day, Thursday, was dedicated to bilateral and multilateral discussions, lab visits, and tours. Participants had the opportunity to visit HIERN (Helmholtz Institute Erlangen-Nürnberg for Renewable Energy) and the Energy Campus Nürnberg (EnCN). These visits offered a glimpse into cutting-edge research facilities and ongoing projects, underscoring the advanced capabilities and research prowess of the host institutions. The tours not only highlighted the infrastructure but also opened avenues for potential collaborative projects.
A key theme that emerged throughout the workshop was the commitment to open-minded and fair cooperation between FAU and Jinan University. Both teams emphasized their dedication to fostering an environment of transparency and mutual respect. This was exemplified by their decision to share all workshop presentations with the wider scientific community, ensuring that the knowledge generated and shared during the event could benefit a broader audience. A dedicated homepage under the governance of the profile center FAU Solar will be set up in order to make the contents from the workshop available to reseachers worldwide. Overall, the Sino-German Science Workshop was a resounding success, characterized by a rich exchange of ideas, meaningful interactions, and a clear commitment to future collaboration. The event not only strengthened the ties between FAU and Jinan University but also set a precedent for fair standards for international al cooperations.
