According to the Hong Kong Ta Kung Pao report, a team of Huang Ziwei, an assistant professor of the Department of Chemistry and Bioengineering at the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology, recently developed a novel cancer cell microscope to determine whether cancer patients still have cancer after a preliminary resection in 3 minutes. cell. This is also one of the research contents of the University of Science and Technology's bio-engineering course to be launched in September this year. The course only accepts 20 students in Hong Kong.
Huang Ziwei said that the cell microscope can be observed in the operating room immediately. Through a few hundred nanometers of sharpness, the doctor can ensure that all cancer cells in the patient's body are removed. Compared with the previous patients, the patient should be re-examined in the body after surgery, and the risk is relatively low. And time is faster.
Zhou Ying, an associate professor in the Department of Chemistry and Bioengineering at HKUST, said that many people mistakenly believe that bioengineering is related to hardware. In fact, it is a method of using mathematics and physics, as well as an analytical and comprehensive methodology of engineering itself to cope with biology. And a variety of new challenges in the field of medicine.
HKUST announced the establishment of the first bioengineering department in Hong Kong to recruit professionals from around the world, including professors of big data and artificial intelligence.
