A delegation led by Prof. Raymond Kai-Yu TONG, a AIMBE fellow and Chairman of Department of Biomedical Engineering at The Chinese University of Hong Kong (CUHK), recently visited the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering of the Faculty of Science and Technology of the University of Macau (UM-FST/ECE) to understand the academic achievements of the University of Macau in the field of biomedical engineering. They also exchanged views on the current situation and future development of the industry in the two regions. This exchange helps to strengthen the connection and cooperation between different universities in the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macau Greater Bay Area, providing opportunities and platforms for the development of biomedical engineering in the Greater Bay Area.
The delegation first visited ECE, where they were warmly welcomed by Prof. Man-Chung WONG, the department head of ECE, who also shared the history and future development direction of the department. Prof Tang also introduced CUHK Biomedical Engineering, focusing on teaching, talent cultivation, and research achievements. Both sides had a lively discussion on the above topics, and representatives from both universities expressed that they had gained a lot.
Members of the delegation also visited UM’s State Key Laboratory of Internet of Things for Smart City, State Key Laboratory of Analog and Mixed-Signal VLSI, Centre for Cognitive and Brain Sciences and various ECE laboratories. This visit strengthens the talent exchanges, teaching and scientific research collaborations in biomedical engineering in Guandong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area.
The CUHK delegation also included Profs. Charles Hing Chiu CHANG, Zhaoli GAO, Megan Yi Ping HO, Martin Wing Cheung MAK, Chuanbin MAO, Scott Wu YUAN, and Renjie ZHOU. Profs. Ruey-Song HUANG, Peng Un MAK, Seng Peng MOK, Mang I VAI, Feng WAN and Technician Pedro Antonio MOU from UM-FST/ECE also participated in the reception and exchange.
美國醫學與生物工程院院士、香港中文大學生物醫學工程系系主任湯啟宇教授早前率團訪問澳門大學科技學院電機及電腦工程系,以了解澳大在生物醫學工程上的辦學成果,以及就兩地行業現狀及未來發展交換意見。是次交流有助加強粵港澳大灣區內不同高校間的聯繫和合作,為大灣區生物醫學工程領域發展提供了機遇及交流平台。
代表團率先參觀電機及電腦工程系,獲系主任黃民聰教授熱情接待,也同時介紹了學系的歷史和未來發展方向。港中大湯教授也向澳大代表介紹港中大生物醫學工程系,聚焦於教學、專才培養及教研成果,雙方就上述議題展開熱烈討論,兩高校代表皆表示獲益良多。
其後,代表團參觀了學系多個實驗室、認知與腦科學研究中心、智慧城市物聯網國家重點實驗室以及模擬與混合信號超大規模集成電路國家重點實驗室,同時讚賞澳大豐碩的科研成果,也期望雙方能對在多方領域包括科學、醫學和工程學的跨學科上能深化交流合作。
港中大代表團成員還有曾慶昭、高兆理、何亦平、麥永昌、毛傳斌、袁武以及周仁杰教授。澳大科技學院教授黃瑞松、麥炳源、莫昇萍、韋孟宇、萬峰及技術員巫彥其也參與了是次接待和交流。
