CityU Eminence Society – Visit to BME Laboratory

The CityU Eminence Society (CES) University Collaborative Project Work Group 2 arranged a visit to laboratories of Department of Biomedical Engineering (BME) by Dr. YC Chau to seek further collaboration opportunities between CES and BME.  Dr. Ricky Yeung (Laboratory Manager, BME) was our old friend and he led this visit for us.

Firstly, Dr. Ricky Yeung introduced their 3D Laser Micro Fabrication and Compact NanoImprint Tool (CNI) to us. It could development micro/nano structure for cell development or fluid flow. 

Then he briefed the micro robot which could carry drug and using magnetic field to lead its movement.  Now, it was using zebrafish for testing. 

After that we visited the Robotics, Control and Biotechnology Research Laboratory.

We observed different instruments included confocal microscope, laser lithography system, etc.  

Finally, he demonstrated the Compact Magnet Resonance Imaging System and showed sample location.

We appreciated Dr. Ricky Yeung and Dr. YC Chau arranged this visit for Univerity Collaborative Project Work Group 2 so we had more insight and understanding on BME and its research capability.
