A delegation from Shunde District visited PolyU on 24 February to engage in industry-academia-research exchanges, aiming to fostering collaboration in research projects, technological innovation and transfer, as well as joint talent development initiatives.
Prof. DONG Cheng, Associate Vice President (Mainland Research Advancement) and Chair Professor of Cell Engineering and ImmunoMedicine in the Department of Biomedical Engineering of PolyU warmly welcomed the delegation. He highlighted PolyU's remarkable achievements in research, innovation, and industry-academia collaboration, emphasizing its commitment to transforming research into practical solutions and applications for sustainable societal and economic development.
Several PolyU scholars also shared the latest research progress in their respective faculties, and explored potential industrial applications. Prof. Henry DUH, Associate Dean (Global & Industry Engagement) of the School of Design and Director of Research Centre for Art and Culture Technology, explained how artificial intelligence is empowering the cultural and creative industries, driving cross-disciplinary innovation; Prof. LIU Yan, Associate Professor of the Department of Computing, introduced the newly established Faculty of Computer and Mathematical Sciences and shared how artificial intelligence and human-machine interaction technology are being used to analyse and improve personal stress resistance and performance; Prof. Hailong HUANG, Assistant Professor of the Department of Aeronautical and Aviation Engineering, discussed how perception modules and cutting-edge sensor technology contribute to the development of the low-altitude industry and its potential economic applications. Both sides engaged in in-depth discussions on topics such as robotics technology and talent cultivation, expressing interest in collaborative initiatives.
The delegation also visited PolyU's State Key Laboratory of Ultra-precision Machining Technology to explore its cutting-edge scientific research and advanced laboratory facilities.
PolyU will continue to leverage its advantages in academic and technological innovation, join forces with the Shunde District to promote the transformation of R&D achievements and talent cultivation, and support the high-quality development of the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area.
