What are the applications of graphene in daily life? How to maintain enthusiasm for scientific research? What is the role of AI in scientific research On the 14th, the Hong Kong Polytechnic University was bustling with excitement, as Andr é Heim, winner of the 2010 Nobel Prize in Physics, and Harvey Alta, winner of the 2020 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine, discussed the charm of scientific research with faculty and students from the Hong Kong Polytechnic University. The theme activity of "Me with Scientists" is one of the theme activities of the second "Hong Kong World Youth Science Conference", aiming to promote academic exchanges, stimulate innovative thinking, gather master of science students, scholars, and researchers, and jointly explore cutting-edge scientific issues. The President of The Hong Kong Polytechnic University, Teng Kam kwong, delivered a speech stating that as an innovative world-class university, The Hong Kong Polytechnic University is committed to promoting scientific research and looks forward to further breakthroughs in scientific research. After 9 months, Andrei Heim returned to the Hong Kong Polytechnic University to share his research journey with the theme of "magical materials", starting from the application of graphene. Scientific research work is about surpassing previous academic achievements, but it is difficult to make more innovative results. We cannot lose the courage to continue exploring just because someone has already done similar research. Even if there are only weak clues, we must persist in exploring and enjoy every small success in scientific research, "he said. In the audience, Feng Jiayuan, a first-year student at the Hong Kong Polytechnic University, nodded frequently and occasionally recorded Andre Heim's sharing. I have very little knowledge about scientific research, and today's sharing has given me a clear understanding of the scientific research process, "said Feng Jiayuan. He hopes that soon he can also use" perseverance "as the key to unlock the door of scientific research. Subsequently, Harvey Alta shared his advice on the growth of college students based on his personal growth experience. Enjoying the process of scientific research, slow is fast, and small observations are the source of big science, "said Harvey Alta. The enthusiasm and curiosity of young researchers towards basic science are crucial. After the event, many students still stayed on site to have further conversations with the two guests, and the atmosphere was very lively. Hong Kong has abundant teaching resources and constantly innovating scientific research achievements. We look forward to having Hong Kong researchers win Nobel Prizes in the future, "said Andrei Heim. (New Society)
