As you are aware, the 8th Joint Meeting of Chinese Physicists Worldwide — International Conference on Physics & Education (OCPA8) in Singapore (June, 2014) was a great success.

The next meeting, OCPA9, will take place in the summer of 2017 in Tsinghua University, Beijing. The conference will be co-chaired by Prof. Qikun Xue (Tsinghua University, Beijing), representing the local organizers, and myself (Albert M. Chang), representing OCPA. The local organizers consist of the Department of Physics in Tsinghua University, the School of Physics in Peking University, the Institute of Physics, Chinese Academy of Sciences, and the Collaborative Innovation Center of Quantum Matter.
