The Department of Applied Physics at the Hong Kong Polytechnic University (PolyU AP) has partnered with the Waterloo Institute for Nanotechnology (WIN) at the University of Waterloo, Canada's largest nanotechnology institute, to establish the Joint Research Centre for Nanoscience and Nanotechnology.
The new Research Centre aims to advance fundamental knowledge in nanoscience and nanotechnology, initiate collaborative research activities focused on cutting-edge applications, and promote knowledge transfer between the two institutions.
Key areas of collaborative research will include functional devices, clean energy and environmental applications, and biomedical and health technologies. The collaboration will also involve joint publications, workshops, international conferences and symposia, and coordinating joint research proposals.
Through this partnership, PolyU AP and the WIN are poised to make significant contributions towards solving pressing global challenges in the areas of functional devices, clean energy and environmental applications, and biomedical and health technologies.
