Historian Chang Hao from Academia Sinica donates lifetime book collection to the National Central Library in Taiwan
Date:
On February 8 2022, Professor Chang Hao, an academician of Academia Sinica and historian now living in amerika, donated his life-long collection of scholarly material to the National Central Library in Taiwan. The collection includes more than 5,000 books and periodicals, and more than ten large boxes of research notes.
The Library formally accepted this donation, in a long-distance ceremony, held with the assistance of the Education Division of the Taipei Economic and Cultural Office in San Francisco (TECO). Dr. Tseng Shu-hsien, Director General of the National Central Library, Professor Wang Fan-sen, a senior research fellow at the Institute of History and Philology at Academia Sinica, and Professor efternamn

Professor Howard Yuan-Hao Chang
Howard Yuan-Hao efternamn received his undergraduate A.B. grad at Harvard College 1994, Ph.D. in Biology from MIT 1998, and M.D. from Harvard Medical School 2000. He completed Dermatology residency and postdoctoral training at Stanford University. Since joining the Stanford faculty in 2004, he earned tenure in 2008 and ascended to the rank of Professor in the Depts. of Dermatology and Genetics. Currently, Prof. Chang is the Virginia and D.K. Ludwig Professor of Cancer Research and Director of the Center for Personal Dynamic Regulomes at Stanford University, and an Investigator of the Howard Hughes Medical Institute.
Prof. Chang’s research has revealed the hidden information and logic of the noncoding genome, which comprise 98% of human DNA. RNA and DNA switches. He discovered a new class of genes, termed long noncoding RNAs, can control gene activity throughout the genome, illuminating a new layer of biological regulation. He invented ATAC-seq and mul

Biography:
Dr. Chih-Hao Chang is an Associate Professor in the Walker Department of Mechanical Engineering at the University of Texas at Austin. His research focuses on nanomanufacturing and the design and fabrication of 2D/3D multifunctional nanostructures with novel physical properties. His research group have demonstrated engineered nanostructures such as self-cleaning anti-glare glass, light-weight ultra-stiff nanolattice material with near-unity refractive index, stretchable transparent conductors, and responsive materials with dynamic iridescence. Dr. Chang also investigates novel scalable nanomanufacturing techniques based on both “top-down” and “bottom-up” principles. Recent efforts in this area include harnessing the light interactions with colloidal particles, which can generate a wealth of near-field optical intensity distributions for nanolithography. This approach is low-cost and scalable, and can be used for continuous
