Raising the level of water technology

In a high density, highly urbanised city like Hong Kong, wastewater treatment is of the prime importance to ensure public health. In recent years local research in the area has been stepped up, resulting in advanced technology that yields diverse benefits. Professor Li Xiao-yan, Professor Kaimin Shih, Professor Zhang Tong and Dr May Chui of the Department of Civil Engineering are among the forerunners in global research in water science and technology.

A Synergistic Partnership between Academia and Industry

The University of Hong Kong – Standard Chartered Hong Kong 150^th Anniversary Community Foundation FinTech Academy (HKU-SCF FinTech Academy) is established to steer FinTech development and groom world-class talents.

Ultrastrong steel: A big step closer to industrialising

The Super Steel project led by Professor Huang Mingxin at the Department of Mechanical Engineering, with collaborators at the Lawrence Berkeley National Lab (LBNL), has made important breakthrough in its new super D&P steel (produced using a new deformed and partitioned method) to greatly enhance its fracture resistance while maintaining super strong in strength for advanced industrial applications.

A novel high-speed microscope to capture brain neuroactivities

Dr Kevin Tsia (Department of Electrical and Electronic Engineering) and his collaborators at UC Berkeley offer a novel solution with their super high-speed microscope - two-photon fluorescence microscope, which has successfully recorded the millisecond electrical signals in the neurons of an alert mouse.
