U.S. university and HCM's national university develops scientific ties

Moreover, the two sides will suggest to the governments of Vietnam and the U.S. measures to further improve the bilateral cooperation.

A delegation from the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) led by Chancellor Gene Block will visit Vietnam and work with the Vietnam National University in HCMC from June 28 to July 1 to forge scientific ties between the two institutions.
 
Both schools will ink an agreement on June 30 in biomedical science and educational science. 
Professor Gene Block will host the talk “Developing a Global University: UCLA Experience” for the staffs of the Vietnam National University in HCMC.
Since 2008, scientists from the U.S. university have joined hands with partners from the Vietnam National University in HCMC to set up and develop materials relating to molecular structure and nanostructure for use in the fields of energy and environment. Based on the cooperation, the Center for Molecular and Nanoarchitectures (MANAR) was established in December 2011 in the campus of the Vietnam National University in HCMC.
After that, the two sides have jointly carried out new programs on biomedical science and educational science.
