Congratulations to Dr Jiewei Chen, a Research Assistant Professor from the Department of Applied Physics at The Hong Kong Polytechnic University (PolyU), on being awarded the PolyU Young Innovative Research Award (YIRA) for 2024. This accolade recognizes Dr Chen's groundbreaking work and innovative thinking as a young researcher under the age of 35.
Dr Chen's award-winning project, "Integration of Optoelectronics and Optical Fibers for Robust In-Sensor Computing," exemplifies his ability to tackle real-world challenges through cutting-edge technology. By developing novel topological devices with innovative physical mechanisms in the post-processing units of AIoT (Artificial Intelligence of Things) systems, Dr Chen has made significant strides in reducing computational energy consumption while minimizing unnecessary data transmission. His research has led to remarkable improvements in intelligent sensing, pre-processing, and information extraction capabilities.
PolyU Young Innovative Researcher Award (YIRA) aims to honor young PolyU researchers under the age of 35 who have made outstanding research achievements, contributed to technological advancements, and propelled transformative innovation to address societal problems. The awardees should demonstrate a vision for positive change and provide innovative solutions that shape the future.
Let us applaud Dr Chen's outstanding achievements and commitment to pushing the boundaries of scientific understanding!
