Takuzo Aida

Takuzo Aida (相田 卓三 Aida Takuzō, born May 3, 1956 in Japan) is a professor of University of Tokyo and an award-winning polymer chemist. He has maintained a research laboratory at the University of Tokyo for over 20 years. Aida maintained that he chose chemistry as his field of study because it offered less competition to obtain admission to Japanese colleges at the time than other scientific disciplines (he described himself as "lazy"). As a graduate student, his main extracurricular activity was mountain climbing. Aida has published 210 research papers and holds 66 patents (December 2008). His achievements include light-harvesting dendrimers, such as the first dendritic macromolecule to encapsulate a dye unit, and cancer-therapy molecules. His group worked for over two years to develop a catalytic procedure for polymerizing ethylene. Their procedure is accomplished in one continuous reaction. His group performed the first successful formation of conductive self-assembled graphite nanotubes. He has constructed a molecular-scale snipping apparatus, used to hold molecules and modify their chemical arrangement. In 2009 Aida received the American Chemical Society's award in Polymer Chemistry. 活动家作为专业第三方嘉宾邀约平台，依托互联网公开数据为您提供嘉宾信息展示服务。若您发现嘉宾信息需要更新或移除，请发送邮件或联系客服。 我们专注于根据您的具体需求（包括演讲议题、会议日期及活动预算等），为您精准匹配各领域专业嘉宾。 为高效服务，建议您提前准备好详细活动信息，并拨打客服电话：18911802888（工作日9:00-18:00）。 温馨提示：本服务仅限嘉宾邀约相关事宜，其他需求暂不处理，感谢您的理解与配合。
