面临种种挑战，人缘组织更重要
三州华美化学会举办新年年会，号召会员及朋友们踊跃参加

2009年是变化的一年，挑战的一年，奥巴马走马上任，国会通过巨额经济刺激计划，医疗保健改革，失业率高居不下，各行各业都在紧缩开支苦渡难关。在这样的形势下，三州华美化学会 （Tri-State CACS），美东北地区凝聚化学医药化工科技人员的华人社团积极为会员着想，为会员提供就业信息，并继续为本地高中生提供“青年学生化学奖”。

三州华美化学会将于1月30日周六晚5：00在位于East Brunswick的Sunny Palace大酒店举办一年一度的新年晚会。为会员们提供一个欢聚一起，忘掉烦恼忧愁，交流有用信息，结识新朋，联系好友，美食佳肴，联谊联欢， 总结过去2009年的收获成就经验教训，展望2010年的目标和方向，交流各自的心得与体会，相互协助帮忙，争取新的一年里有新的成就。

晚会有10 道大餐，乐队，DJ,，快乐舞会，卡拉OK，游戏等。时值新春， 欢迎会员们踊跃参加，也欢迎新会员积极参入。

建会二十五年多的华美化学会是一个志愿者参与的，无政治倾向，非盈利的组织。学会面对从事化学化工医药以及有关行业的专业人士。学会建立了独树一帜的“导师项目”（mentor program），给新入行的专业人员以帮助和提携。学会的“青年学生化学奖”，每年给高中高年级学生提供奖学金，以鼓励高中生对化学以及有关专业的兴趣。最近，学会开始向会员们推荐移民方面的专家，以满足会员们在移民以及法律方面的要求。2007年，三州华美化学会与国内合作，成功地在北京举办了《北京国际医药研发论坛》，吸引了不少国内外医药界的同事参加。而三州华美化学会也于今年六月成功举办专题为“化学之全球挑战与机会”的年会，近三百多位化学化工医药科技人员相聚一起，就化学小分子在医药方面的发展，挑战与机会进行了热烈的讨论。来自制药大公司以及化学，化学仪器，医药器材等公司的高层管理人员与资深化学家在年会上作了精彩的讲演。2009年夏，三州华美化学会还将于中国专利局下属中国知识产权研究会共同合作举办第二届北京国际医药化学知识产权高峰会议。

2009年 三州华美化学会《青年化学奖》揭晓

活跃在新州大纽约地区的专业人士协会--- 三州华美化学会（ Tri-state Chinese American Chemical Society ） 为了提高美国高中学生对科学的兴趣，奖励华裔高中生在科研上的成就，专门设立了《青年化学 奖》(Young Chemist Award) 。经过了认真的评定，今年的《青年化学奖》的得主为宾州Hatboro-Horsham高中的Andrew Wu, 新州Watchung Hills Regional 高中的Dennis Xuan 和新州Montgomery 高中的David Zhao.

Andrew Wu      Dennis Xuan     David Zhao

Andrew Wu就读于宾州Hatboro-Horsham高中，今年九月进入十二年级。他认为化学在生活中有很多的实际用途，并可以用来改善生活质量。Andrew是national merit semifinalist and AP scholar得主。 作为名列全校前茅的全A学生，Andrew不仅仅学业优异，而且课外活动丰富。他是学校科学俱乐部的发起人和主席，也是学校网球队的主要队员，他与其他队员一起在网球比赛中获得过团体第二名的好成绩。

Dennis Xuan 是Watchung Hills Regional高中十二年级的学生，学习成绩优异。他在高中十年级就开始选修了AP Chemistry并得了A, 给任课老师留下了深刻印象。暑假期间，他专门到罗格斯大学Joseph L. Dixon博士的实验室去做暑期实习生，亲身体验大学的科研是怎么进行的。不出意料，他的SAT II Chemistry 的成绩是完美的800分。自上高中就一直是优秀生 （honor roll）的他，还参加了很多课外活动，他是学校的击剑队的主要成员，机器人俱乐部的成员。弹有一手好钢琴的他，常常去Somerset成人中心去做义工，为社区服务。

笑口常开的David Zhao是新州Montgomery高中十一年级的学生。他从小就对化学比较感兴趣。上了高中不久，他就把化学“学透了”，不仅拿了SAT II 满分（800）， 还把AP chemistry 考过了，最高分5分！AP 5分相当于完全通过了大学化学基础课，上了大学是可以免修这一课程的。David 不仅仅化学学得好，他的数学也十分优异，十年级， 他不仅满分拿下了SAT II Math, 更是5分通过了AP Calculus (大学微积分)。不用提David 其他优秀的学业成绩和丰富多彩的课外活动，他的老师在推荐信中说，这个学生是他十多年执教中亮丽的明星，他将在理科学习中有很大的出息。

本次青年学生化学奖得主将收到电子通知获奖的消息，本人和他们的家长将被邀请参加华美化学会新年联欢晚会，在晚会上接受学会颁发的证书和奖金。

2009 CACS Young Chemist Awards Announced

Tri-State Chinese American Chemical Society awards Young Chemist Awards every year to outstanding high school students to cultivate their interests in Chemistry and Science in general among Chinese-American youth in the greater tri-state area.

The three will receive their awards that include a certificate and a cash prize at the upcoming CACS Chinese New Year Party on Saturday, January 30, 2010.

Andrew Wu, currently a senior at Hatboro-Horsham High School of Pennsylvania, was attracted to chemistry in a young age by attending chemistry programs offered by his parents’ companies. He is a straight A student and ranks at the top in his class. Andrew is a National Merit Semifinalist and AP scholar with honor. He is the founder and president of a Science Club in his school. He has traveled across the country to participate and won a variety of individual and team competitions. As stated in one of his recommendation letters, “his accomplishments are truly without precedent”. Besides academic achievements, Andrew is also an outstanding tennis player and helped his team to a 2nd place finish in Boys’ Varsity Tennis.

Dennis Xuan, currently a senior at Watchung Hills Regional High School, has a very impressive academic record. He has started taking AP courses since his sophomore year. He finished his AP chemistry course with a straight A before his junior year in high school. He demonstrated strong interest in chemistry and volunteered to work in Dr. Joseph L. Dixon’s Chemistry lab at Rutgers. He scored a perfect 800 in SAT II in chemistry. Dennis also ranked in the top 10% at Watchung Hills Regional High School. He has been on the honor roll since his freshman year in high school. His other extra curriculum activities included Varsity Fencing, Lego Robotics, and Piano. Dennis also volunteers at Somerset Adult Day Center.

David Zhao is a junior at Montgomery High School. He has been fascinated by chemistry from a young age. He already took SAT II chemistry before taking SAT and got the perfect 800 score; he received a score of 5 in AP chemistry, a college level chemistry course in his sophomore year in high school. In addition, he also obtained perfect scores in AP Calculus, SAT II math, and SAT II Chinese. David is a member of the Montgomery Science Olympiad Team and won many individual and team medals in the central regional and New Jersey state competitions. One of his teachers wrote in his recommendation letter “David has already compiled an impressive academic record and is a student who has a bright future in the sciences”.
