During this ceremony, six international scientific personalities will bring out the title and insignia of Doctor Honoris Causa for the excellence of their research work, their exceptional contributions to the arts, letters, sciences and techniques, and for their close links with the Grenoble Alpes University.
Excellence in functional materials
Professor Wen-Chang Chen is worldrenowned for his research in functional materials, particularly in electronic and optoelectronic polymers, and their integration into bio-nanoelectronic devices. Hybrid materials with remarkable properties and a wide range of promising applications.
A strong collaboration with Grenoble Alpes University, but not only…
Prof. Wen-Chang Chen has been working for many years with Prof. Redouane Borsali, Director of Carnot PolyNat, on sugar-based copolymers to replace petroleum derivatives in electronics. Together, they led several projects associating NTU and the Ministry of Science and Technology of Taiwan (MOST) with CNRS and Carnot PolyNat. And from this fruitful collaboration, the international Green Material Institute laboratory in Taiwan was created, which the two collaborators run together.
