Prof. Zijian ZHENG, Associate Director of Research Institute for Intelligent Wearable Systems, as Project Coordinators was supported by the RGC Research Impact Fund 2022/23 with a total amount of $5.55 M (exclusive of on-costs) for the project titled ‘Flexible and Stretchable Batteries for Wearable Applications’ for a period of 48 months.
The Research Impact Fund (RIF) aims to encourage local academics to consider and articulate the potential of research to deliver benefits to the wider community, encourage more impactful and translational research projects; and encourage a greater volume of collaborative research beyond academia (e.g. with government departments, the business sector, the industry, and research institutes). In the 2022/23 Exercise, the RGC received 127 preliminary proposals, 48 proposals were shortlisted for submission as full proposals and 18 proposals were selected for interview. Finally, 13 proposals were supported with a total amount of $75 million (exclusive of on-costs).
Congratulations to Prof. Zheng awarded Research Impact Fund in the 2022/23 Exercise!
