Prof. HU Wenqi and MAE PG student Mr. CHEN Xi, in collaboration with Scientists from the Physical Intelligence Department at the Max Planck Institute for Intelligent Systems in Stuttgart and Koc University in Istanbul created artificial cilia from hydrogel, which can be moved individually or in groups by applying an electric field.
HKUST hosted the inaugural Nobel Heroes@HKUST, welcoming four Nobel laureates – Prof. Tim HUNT (Physiology or Medicine 2001), Prof. Louis J. IGNARRO (Physiology or Medicine 1998), Prof. Robert C. MERTON (Economic Sciences 1997) and Prof. Konstantin NOVOSELOV (Physics 2010).
A team led by ISD Asst. Prof. Richard GU Hongri, in collaboration with experts in mechanical engineering and biomedicine, has developed an innovative automated nanoprobe.
A research team from HKUST and the University of Technology Sydney has released POSEIDON, a large-scale, physics-informed AI system designed to improve earthquake prediction and hazard assessment.
In an exclusive interview by i-Cable TV, Prof. FOK Tai-Fai, co-chairman of the Medical Education Task Force, expressed confidence that most HKUST SMED graduates will remain in Hong Kong to practice, given their 4-year local training, exposure to HK diseases and hospitals, and registration as local doctors.
HKUST researchers have proposed the GARDO system to address the "reward hacking" problem in AI painting. The system enhances the quality and diversity of artworks while preventing model speculation through gating regularization, adaptive criterion adjustment, and a diverse reward mechanism.
