Liu Yong, Professor, Dean of Powder Metallurgy Research Institute, Central South University (CSU). Born in 1973, received his PhD from CSU in 1999. He interests in a very broad fields of materials science and has done lots of work, including processing metallic materials and ceramics (Ti and TiAl alloys, Al alloys, ODS high temperature alloys and cemented carbides), physical metallurgy /mechanical behaviors (plastic deformation, grain boundary chemistry, fracture toughness, fatigue behavior, nanoindentation); thermodynamics (diffusion in bulk metallic glass and intermetallics) and biomaterials (bioceramics, HA, HA/Mica, HA/Polymer, HA/Ti materials). He published more than 200 research papers in peer-reviewed journals and two books, and has 26 patents. He has given more than 17 invited talks in international conferences. He is the host of many research projects, including National Nature Science foundation, National High Technology Research and Development Program (863 Project), National Basic Research Program of China (973 Project), the National Key Technology R&D Program and CSTIND military facilities projects. In 2004, he was chosen to be New Century Excellent Talents in Universities by Ministry of Education, P.R.China. In 2008, he got the “Alexander von Humboldt Fellowship” for “Experienced Researchers”. He was the “Top reviewer” of “Materials Letters” in 2009. In 2011, he got the “1st -Level National Award of Science and Technology (The highest S&T Prize in P.R.China)”. He is also an editorial board member of “Intermetallics” and “Materials Characterization” since 2013. In 2015, he was elected to be one of the experts who enjoy special government allowances of the state council. He keeps long term collaboration relationship with many famous University or research institute all of the world.
