Dr. Zhao Erzhuo from Tsinghua University was invited to the PECat research group for academic exchange. During the communication process, Dr. Zhao first introduced the working principle and usage of gas chromatography (GC) instrument in detail to the members of the research group, helping them better understand the operating process and application skills of the instrument. Subsequently, Dr. Zhao shared basic knowledge about density functional theory (DFT) calculations and, based on his own research experience, discussed how to apply DFT theory for computational analysis of molecular structures and reaction mechanisms in practical scientific research.
In the latter half of the communication, Dr. Zhao visited the laboratory of the research group and focused on learning about the GC-MS instrument of the research group. Dr. Zhao had an in-depth exchange of ideas with the members of the research group, sharing his experience and insights in using GC-MS instruments, and proposing some meth

Recently, Professor Shi Xinjian from Henan University published a landmark article as the first author and corresponding author in Nature Catalysis. This achievement marks the first time that universities and research institutions in Henan Province have published research results in this journal under the first authorship; Moreover, among the newly recruited young teachers at Henan University, this study is currently the only example of the first corresponding author work published in the NS series core journal after joining, and also the shortest publication time among such journals by the main work unit.
This is the first research work in Henan Province to receive this honor, marking a new height in the influence and scientific research strength of our institute in the field of international catalysis.
