澳大教授入選“35歲以下科技創新35人”
《麻省理工科技評論》聯合DeepTech舉辦2024中國科技青年論壇暨《麻省理工科技評論》“35歲以下科技創新35人”中國區發佈儀式。澳門大學應用物理及材料工程研究院助理教授孫鵬展為中國區入選者，成為澳門唯一入選者。
《麻省理工科技評論》1899年創刊。自1999年以來，這份雜誌每年都會選出一批 35歲以下在科技領域當中最具創新性與影響力的青年領袖，組成年度“35歲以下科技創新35人”名單。在過去的20年，很多入選者都已成為行業領袖，如生物成像技術先鋒莊小威，谷歌創始人拉里‧佩奇、謝爾蓋‧布林，特斯拉聯合創始人史特勞貝爾，CRISPR基因編輯技術發明者張鋒等。
孫鵬展入選的理由是“致力於精確構建原子級別限域通道並在實驗上揭示其中的物質輸運過程機理及新奇現象，以及利用所開發的新型限域膜分離技術解決能源、環境等領域面臨的高能耗、低效率等分離共性問題”。他的研究主要集中在開發新型二維分離膜，以及解決涉及二維薄膜分離相關研究的基礎科學問題。他的研究成果多次發表在Nature、PNAS、Nature Communications、Science Advances等知名學術期刊。孫鵬展亦曾獲優秀青年科學基金（港澳）、美國材料研究學會（MRS）研究生獎、清華大學特等獎學金、中國國際石墨烯創新創業大賽一等獎、清華—陶氏可持續發展創新挑戰賽特等獎等獎項。
近十年來，全球科技格局愈發多元化，中國亦以獨特的文化底蘊、強大的科研實力和人才儲備、廣闊的市場潛力，成為全球科技舞台的重要力量。2017年，《麻省理工科技評論》聯合DeepTech將“35歲以下科技創新35人”評選正式落地中國，全力關注和挖掘中國新興科技領域的創新力量。

UM professor named MIT Technology Review’s 35 Innovators Under 35 for China
MIT Technology Review, in collaboration with DeepTech, hosted the Meet 35 Summit 2024 and the MIT Technology Review 35 Innovators Under 35 China Award Ceremony. Sun Pengzhan, assistant professor at the Institute of Applied Physics and Materials Engineering (IAPME) at the University of Macau (UM), was named one of the 35 Innovators Under 35 for China (TR35 China), making him the only scholar from Macao on the list.
MIT Technology Review was founded in 1899. Since 1999, the magazine has annually selected a group of young leaders under the age of 35 who are the most innovative and influential in the field of technology, forming the ‘35 Innovators Under 35’ list. Over the past two decades, many of the winners have gone on to become industry leaders. They include Zhuang Xiaowei, a bio-imaging technology pioneer; Larry Page and Sergey Brin, founders of Google; JB Straubel, co-founder of Tesla; and Zhang Feng, inventor of CRISPR gene editing technology.
Prof Sun was selected for his dedication to the precise construction of atomic-scale confinement channels and the experimental elucidation of the mechanisms and novel phenomena of mass transport processes therein, as well as the application of the new membrane separation technology he has developed to solve common separation problems such as high energy consumption and low efficiency in the fields of energy and environment. His research primarily focuses on the development of novel two-dimensional separation membranes and the solution of fundamental scientific problems associated with two-dimensional separation membranes. Prof Sun’s research findings have been published in leading scientific journals such as Nature, Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences (PNAS), Nature Communications, and Science Advances. He has also received many awards, including the Excellent Young Scientists Fund (Hong Kong and Macao) from the National Natural Science Foundation of China, the Materials Research Society (MRS) Graduate Student Award, Top Scholarship from Tsinghua University, First Prize in the China International Graphene Innovation and Entrepreneurship Competition, and Grand Prize in the Tsinghua-Dow Sustainable Development Innovation Challenge Competition.
Over the past decade, the global technology landscape has become increasingly diverse. With its unique cultural heritage, strong research strengths and talent pool, as well as vast market potential, China has also emerged as a major force in the global technology arena. In 2017, MIT Technology Review and DeepTech jointly launched the ‘35 Innovators Under 35’ for China to identify and recognise the innovative forces in China’s emerging technology fields.
