Professor SHEN Jian-Ren attended the Gregori Aminoff Prize Award
Ceremony, where he received a certificate and medal from the King of
Sweden. The ceremony was hosted by the Royal Academy of Sweden on June
13 at Stockholm City Hall. After the Ceremony, Professor Shen was
invited to a banquet attended by the King. On the following day, June
14, he had the honor to give a lecture at the Royal Swedish Academy of
Sciences to commemorate the award, during which he introduced his
research results on the water-splitting reaction mechanism of
photosynthesis that led him to win the Prize.
The Gregory Aminoff Prize is awarded to individuals who have made
outstanding contributions in the field of crystallography, and Professor
Shen was awarded the prize in 2020 together with Professor Douglas Rees
from the California Institute of Technology for their “fundamental
contributions to the understanding of biological redox metal clusters”.
The award ceremony was postponed due to the coronavirus pandemic and was
held this year in conjunction with the Royal Academy’s annual meeting.
