What important positions has Liu Ruozhuang, an academician of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, held?

Beijing Normal University issued an obituary: Mr. Liu Ruozhuang, an outstanding member of the Communist Party of China, a famous physical chemist in China, the founder of Chinese computational chemistry, an academician of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, and a professor of the School of Chemistry of Beijing Normal University, died in Beijing on October 8, 2020 at the age of 95.

Mr. Liu Ruozhuang has been in peace and quiet all his life, rigorous in his studies, and has pioneered the research direction of applied quantum chemistry and cultivated outstanding talents for the country. Now that he has passed away, he will retain his spirit and posterity.

Liu Ruozhuang was born in a scholarly family, but due to the reason for the middle of the family, the young Liu Ruozhuang's family life was very difficult, and he once needed to borrow money to maintain the family's living expenses. Because he was born in a scholarly family, he was imperceptibly influenced by his father's literati feelings and his mother's strict education since he was a child, and the young Liu Ruozhuang developed the habit of reading, which became a habit that accompanied Mr. Liu Ruozhuang throughout his life and became an inseparable part of his daily life. Because he likes to read, reading all kinds of books has also laid the foundation for Mr. Liu Ruozhuang to create quantum chemistry.

In the middle school days of Mr. Liu Ruozhuang, because of the raging Anti-Japanese War, Liu Ruozhuang changed schools six times, studied hard, did not give up his studies, insisted on completing his junior and senior high school studies, and was admitted to the Department of Chemistry of Peking Fu Jen University with excellent results with his own efforts and strength.

Liu Ruozhuang followed Professor Tang Aoqing in scientific research, and gradually focused on the theoretical application of chemical reactions, which also opened up a new direction for quantum chemistry in China. Under the influence of the book "The Nature of Chemical Bonds" and Professor Tang Aoqing, he began to study the topic of "bond energy of hydrogen bonds of water molecules". By combining the approximate formula of chemical bond energy with the theoretical method, the water molecule model is obtained based on the principle of quantum mechanics, and the bond energy of the book molecule is calculated.

Now that he has passed away, his legacy will inspire future generations of students to strive forward and contribute to the development of the motherland!

He has served as an outstanding member of the Communist Party of China, a famous physical chemist in China, the founder of Chinese computational chemistry, an academician of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, and a professor at the School of Chemistry of Beijing Normal University.

There are a lot of majors you are referring to!

The Chinese Academy of Sciences held a press conference to announce the list, and a total of 51 people were newly elected as academicians. It is understood that these 51 scientists stood out from 314 valid candidates, bringing the total number of academicians of the Chinese Academy of Sciences to 727.

According to the regulations, the co-opted academicians of the Chinese Academy of Sciences are held every two years, and the total number of co-opted academicians for each election does not exceed 60. After the recommendation of the centralized primary selection department and the recommendation of academicians, and after the deliberation and confirmation of the presidium of the Division, there are 314 valid candidates for the co-optation of academicians this year. After material publicity, communication review, conference review and election, and follow-up review and confirmation, review and approval, 51 new academicians were finally produced.

Among them, there are 9 students in the Department of Mathematical Physics, 7 in the Department of Chemistry, 9 in the Division of Life Science and Medicine, 10 in the Division of Geosciences, 7 in the Department of Information Technology Science, and 9 in the Division of Technical Sciences.

The average age of the 51 newly elected academicians, of which 43 are under the age of 60 (inclusive). The average age of the newly elected academicians is the youngest since the standardization of the co-optation of academicians. Compared with the average age (years) of the newly elected academicians of the Chinese Academy of Engineering on the 8th, the average age of the newly elected academicians of the Chinese Academy of Sciences is about 4 years lower.

At the certificate awarding ceremony held yesterday, the newly elected academicians publicly signed the letter of commitment on the spot, and made a public and solemn commitment to fulfill the duties of academicians and strict self-discipline. This is the first time in the history of the Faculty of the Chinese Academy of Sciences.

The nine newly elected foreign academicians are from five countries: the United States, Japan, France, Israel, and the United Kingdom.
