CAE’s Secretary-General Chen Jianfeng said that MGE, a widely recognized cutting-edge technology in material engineering, has become a major driver of S&T innovation by substantially enhancing the R&D efficiency of new materials. The CAE will further its cooperation with Henan province in both scope and depth as it gives full play to the advantages of CAE members. By bringing talent and technologies together, it supports high-quality development of the economy and society of Henan.   

The conference was divided into six sub-forums, one of which was titled “High-throughput material calculation and design” that included 27 foreign and 118 Chinese scholars from 10 countries and regions who gave reports via video link. One hundred conference papers on MGE were displayed in the poster session.  

The success of the forum plays a positive role in facilitating  formation and communication of novel ideas and methodologies in  materials R&D along with development and application of key MGE technologies.
