We are excited to release the latest issue of the PAIR Newsletter!
Issue 13 of the PAIR Newsletter newly includes the PAIR Three Year Report, a special report on PAIR’s operations from 2021/22 to 2023/24, summarising the major developments and achievements at the Academy in the first three-year operating cycle. PAIR has finished the first cycle with great achievements. The summary report provides a glimpse into the fruitful outcomes in scientific research, funding schemes, knowledge transfer and collaborations at the Academy.
The Feature Story section of this Issue covers the insights from PAIR Senior Fellow Prof. Philip RUSSELL on the development and application of “photonic crystal fibre” (PCF), a hollow-core fibre which he proposed in 1991 and revolutionised the way how light travels in glass fibre; as well as the research works by Prof. WENG Qihao, Chair Professor of Geomatics and Artificial Intelligence, which integrate geospatial artificial intelligence to give important insights about urbanisation and develop solutions to mitigate its impacts.
The Research Achievements section includes some of the latest discoveries at PAIR, including evidence that signifies the presence of ocean on Mars billion ago. The People section highlights PAIR scholars who have recently been recognised for their research excellence and elected to prestigious academies. The News & Events section provides a brief review of the many scholarly exchange activities at PAIR over the last few months, media coverages of the works by PAIR scholars, and new partnerships in conducting research and setting up new laboratories.
