A seminar was held on Thursday in honor of late geophysicist Huang Danian, who made outstanding contributions in education and scientific research.

Lin Jun, president of the All-China Federation of Returned Overseas Chinese, appealed to returned overseas Chinese and those still abroad to follow the example of Huang and learn from his spirit of serving the country, professional dedication, bravery of innovation, diligence and his efforts to carry forward socialist core values.

Huang, known for his expertise in deep earth exploration technology, studied and worked in Britain for 18 years before returning to China in 2009. Over the ensuing years, he helped China soar in a number of technical fields, transforming the nation into one of the world's leaders in deep earth exploration.

Huang died from illness at age 58 on Jan. 8.

Around 2,000 returned overseas Chinese and students from the capital attended the seminar and many were moved to tears by Huang's deeds.

China Association for Science and Technology and the Ministry of Science and Technology decided to give posthumous honor to Huang as a "distinguished scientist," and asked scientific and technological workers to learn from him.
