Prof. FU Mingwang, Chair Professor of Advanced Manufacturing, Associate Director of Research Institute for Advanced Manufacturing, was recently awarded the Royal Society Wolfson Visiting Fellowship with a grant of £125,000.00 to support this fellowship. The Visiting Fellowship belongs to the Royal Society Wolfson Fellowship/Visiting Fellowship Scheme, which awards less than 10 people each year with this prestigious fellowship title and funding support for both fellowship and visiting fellowship. For the Visiting Fellowship, based on the Royal Society, it provides an opportunity for outstanding international research leaders to foster international collaborative links and enrich scientific research in the host organization as well as the wider UK science base.
For the Royal Society, it is the United Kingdom's national academy of sciences founded in 1660 for “promoting science and its benefits, recognizing excellence in science, supporting outstanding science, providing scientific advice for policy, education and public engagement and fostering international and global co-operation”.
