SHANGHAI Party Secretary Han Zheng on Saturday met Samuel Chao Chung Ting, a Chinese-American physicist who received the Nobel Prize in 1976.

Ting came to Shanghai to attend the second Fudan Science and Technology Innovation Forum.

Han welcomed the overseas scholars for the forum including Ting and learned about research achievements of these guests.

Han said that it is essential for our education to train innovative talents with great imagination and courage to break bottlenecks.

Ting also praised Fudan University’s major progress in brain science and brain-like intelligence technology. He said that if these progresses make breakthroughs, their significance will be very prominent.
