On October 15-19, 2019, the teachers and students of our group participated in National Polymer Academic Paper Report Conference 2019 held in Xi'an.

Prof. Yanlei Yu delivered an invited lecture entitled "photodeformable liquid crystal polymers-based functional biomimetic microstructures"; Teacher Chongyu Zhu presented an oral report entitled "light-responsive liquid crystal polymers-based flexible microtubule actuators"; both reports received extensive attention and unanimous praise from experts and scholars at the conference. The poster prepared by Xiao Zhang, a doctoral student of our group, stood out among its competitors and won the Excellent Poster Award (award rate restricted to 5%), which exhibited the best style of teachers and students of our group!
