Academician Ma Zuoping has been devoted to micro-electronics research, and has made important contribution to scientific recognition and technology development of metals/ oxides/ semiconductors, especially the domain of MOS gate dielectrics (including gate dielectrics of high dielectric constant). Academician Ma is the co-director of Microelectronics Center of Yale University, American director of Peking University—Yale University Microelectronic and Nanotechnology United Center, leading expert in the field of non-volatile memory, and the inventor of FEDRAM. In 2005, the Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers (IEEE) presented Academician Ma with Andrew S. Grove Awards, which is only offered to one world-level researcher who reputably contributes in computer science. In 2006, Academician Ma won University Researcher Award presented by Semiconductor Industry Association (SIA), becoming the first Chinese American who wins this award.  

Before the lecture officially started, Gu Pu, founder of Bauing Group made a brief introduction to Bauing Culture Forum to audience at site, and presented a couplet “Have a thorough knowledge of Chinese and Western culture, Devote to writing books advancing his theories”. Leaders of GDUFS also presented souvenirs to Academician Ma Zuoping before the lecture.

Starting from self creation theory, Ma thought that human beings will be in the Silicon Age in social development for a long time. He took various electronic products around us as evidences. Then Academician Ma took electronic industry into the whole economy framework for consideration, and proposed the idea that electronic industry is the biggest industry at present and also the industry which develops most quickly. Academician stressed that electronic industry’s foundation is semiconductor science. He further guided field audience to review the revolution of electronic industry from transistors to integrated circuits. He thought that wit Moore’s law going to its ultimate, integrated circuits will have characteristics completely different from previous situations from technology to industry. Academician Ma’s profound knowledge, humorous words, modest lecture style and the charm of teacher’s moral won thunderous applause from the audience.

After the lecture, teachers from Cisco School of Informatics, GDUFS, and students from other colleges and universities according to their actual teaching and learning conditions, consulted Academician Ma about teaching dilemma of electronic industry, the development bottleneck of Chinese integrated circuit industry, how Yale’s students learn and firmly stick to their ideas. Academician Ma separately gave his detailed answers according to his extensive knowledge and rich life experience.

2  Make multi-dimensional survey in Guangdong educational field, pay visit to National Supercomputer Center in Guangzhou to seek cooperation 

Before the lecture, Academician Ma Zuoping and his fellows, accompanied by Vice President Gu Pu, GDUFS’s Vice President He Chuantian and other school leaders, also visited GDUFS’s MBA Education Center and Transn Multilanguage Harbor, Guangdong Research Center for International Strategies, GDUFS’s history museum and National Supercomputer Center in Guangzhou (NSCC-GZ). At GDUFS’s MBA Education Center, Academician Ma encouraged students who are having class to learn in creative way and broaden their vision. At Transn Multilanguage Harbor, Guangdong Research Center for International Strategies and GDUFS’s history museum, Ma learned detailed information about GDUFS’s achievement in scientific research, the construction conditions of 21 st -Century Maritime Sill Road Collaborative Innovation Center and the development situation since GDUFS’s establishment.

Afterwards, GDUFS’s President Zhong Weihe also met Academician Ma and his fellows, and had talks about college education and other topics with them. Academician Ma and his fellows finally visited NSCC-GZ. Professor Yuan Xuefeng, director of NSCC-GZ received Academician Ma and his fellows, and guided them to visit Tianhe-2 Supercomputer and learn about its operation conditions, hoping that NSCC-GZ can reach cooperation with chip research institute and international precision medicine academy. Ma also paid a visit to Guangzhou Higher Education Mega Center.

During the panel discussion, Executive Vice-Mayor Zhang Hu pointed out that, in aspects of developing precision medicine, we can raise Shenzhen medical treatment and public health level by taking advantages of foreign new technologies. Ma said that he hopes we can learn from previous successful experience regarding innovation carrier construction and training. Zhou Pengbo, person in charge of preparing precision medicine international academy also said, the academy would introduce foreign intellectual resources to assist in the development of Shenzhen’s individualized medical industries. Li Daxi said, from his experiences of travelling between China and America, he learnt that overseas student groups are precious wisdom resources to be explored. He thought that introducing foreign resources is not just financing, but also includes integrating intelligence, absorbing foreign companies’ advanced management experience and seeking excellent partners. In 2000, Chinese Association for Science and Business (CASB) and Shenzhen Municipal Government jointly established Shenzhen Overseas Chinese High-Tech Venture Park, and successfully incubated Thunder, NETAC and several other high-tech enterprises.
