毛河光，台湾大学学士，美国罗彻斯特大学硕士、博士。1968-2018年在美国卡内基研究院从事高压科学研究。当选为美国国家科学院院士、中国科学院外籍院士、英国皇家科学院外籍院士。2015年在中国建立北京高压科学研究中心，担任中心主任，发展高压物理、高压化学、高压材料学、高压地学、及高压技术等基础科学研究。

Ho-kwang (David) Mao received B.S. from Taiwan University, M.S. and Ph.D. from the University of Rochester. From 1968 to 2018, he worked as a Scientific Staff at the Carnegie Institution of Washington.  He was elected as a Member of the U. S. National Academy of Sciences, a Member of Academia Sinica, a Foreign Member of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, and a Foreign Member of the Royal Society (UK). Since 2015, he has established Center for High Pressure Science and Technology Advanced Research and worked as the Director to advance high-pressure physics, chemistry, materials and Earth sciences and related technology.

讲座摘要/Abstract:

改革开放四十年以来，技术发展已获得骄人的成绩；而颠覆基础科学的蝶变仍是凤毛麟角。本世纪初发展了数百万巴的压力和压力下全面科研探测的能力。在新加的压力空间中，前所未有的新物质和新现象，突然增加了十倍以上。今后五十年物质科学主要的突破，无疑将多发生于探索辽阔无垠的崭新旷野。多年来科学追求的圣杯，如金属氢、室温超导、超金刚石硬度等，在高压下已次第发现。颠覆以往认知，跨越物理、化学、材料、地学的科学蝶变，也逐渐成型，将是今后的重点。

Transformative research is driven by ideas that have the potential to radically change our understanding of an important existing scientific concept or leading to the creation of a new paradigm or field of science.  The recently enabled ultrahigh pressure research has opened an unprecedently vast field for pursuing innovative definable goals, such as metallic hydrogen, room-temperature superconductors, and harder-than-diamond materials. More importantly, totally unexpected discoveries are leading to transformative science through interdisciplinary high-pressure research in physics, chemistry, earth and materials research.
