The "Adamas Academic Paper Award" – a special feature on outstanding research groups – emphasizes the development of talent and the transformation of scientific research outcomes (Part II). On August 24, 2016, talent was underscored as the primary resource and the foremost productive force. Science and technology are recognized as the engines of economic growth and the main drivers of enhancing national power. What kind of chemical reaction occurs when there's a focus on both talent development and the transformation of scientific research results? Let’s turn our attention to today's protagonist – the research group led by Professor Shi Bingfeng from the Department of Chemistry at Zhejiang University, and explore the exciting contributions they are making.

The Adamas Award for Academic Papers - Inspiring Scientific Excellence Program, from its inception to the third edition, has attracted an increasing number of research elites. This award encourages innovation, offers research teams more opportunities for exposure, and fosters interdisciplinary collaboration and mutual assistance. These ideals form the cornerstone of our unwavering support for this initiative

On August 4, 2015, the Adams Awards celebrated outstanding achievements in academic research—highlighting the passion and dedication on the academic journey. In this edition, we spotlight exceptional individuals who have not only achieved the Excellence Award but also the Innovation Award.

In the second installment of the Adamas Award, all the showcased research elites achieved the Excellence Award (First Prize, limited to five recipients). They shared detailed experiences from their scientific research journey, offering significant references for many students still navigating the path of scientific research.

Since the launch of the "Adamas Award" — China's Science Elite Inspiration Program, an increasing number of scientific elites have joined this initiative from its first to second session. This has not only propelled innovation but also provided more opportunities for scientific elites to showcase themselves, fostering interdisciplinary exchange and support. This remains the original intention behind our commitment to this activity. Starting today, a weekly showcase event for scientific elites officially kicks off, revealing how they embarked on the path of scientific research, their areas of expertise, their achievements so far, and the fields in which they hope to collaborate and exchange ideas.
