Ifirst learnt about the Visiting Professorship Programme after visiting the Institute of Geology and Palaeontology of the Chinese Academy of Sciences in Nanjing during December 2009. I was asked to give a lecture on "missing links" amongst ancient Cycads and also met with staff of the Institute to learn about and discuss shared research interests from a joint Chinese and English perspective.
