The Chinese University of Hong Kong (CUHK) has received generous support of HK$49.7 million from The Hong Kong Jockey Club Charities Trust (the Trust) to establish five Jockey Club (JC) STEM Labs. Among them, the JC STEM Lab of Intelligent Design Automation is led by Professor Ho Tsung Yi from the Department of Computer Science and Engineering. The Lab aspires to make CUHK an iconic centre for next-generation technologies and applications in electronic design automation. The JC STEM Lab of Nature-inspired Precision Medical Engineering is led by Professor Mao Chuanbin from the Department of Biomedical Engineering; and it will focus on transforming nature’s tools into precision medicine to combat challenging diseases such as cancer.

The Trust has allocated HK$500 million for the JC STEM Lab initiative. It is a central component of the Trust’s talent and sector development strategy and aims to support the laboratory set-up at University Grants Committee-funded universities for the awarded scholars under the Government-initiated Global STEM Professorship Scheme, so as to nurture STEM talent in Hong Kong and promote the translation of new science and technology into social impact. The University held an inauguration ceremony yesterday (18 December 2023) to express gratitude and appreciation to the Trust. The officiating guests at the ceremony were Professor Rocky S. Tuan, Vice-Chancellor and President of CUHK; Professor Alan Chan, Provost of CUHK; and Ms Ada Chu, Head of Charities (Talent & Sector Development) of The Hong Kong Jockey Club.

Body: 
The Research Grants Council of Hong Kong (RGC) recently announced the funding results of the National Natural Science Foundation of China (NSFC)/RGC Joint Research Scheme (JRS) and Collaborative Research Scheme (CRS). The JRS is funding 10 projects at The Chinese University of Hong Kong (CUHK), and among which, the Principal Investigators of 3 projects are from the Faculty of Engineering. They are Professor Dou Qi from the Department of Computer Science and Engineering, Professor Sun Xiankai from the Department of Electronic Engineering, and Professor Zhou Renjie from the Department of Biomedical Engineering. Each successful JRS Hong Kong applicant receives a maximum grant of HK$1.25 million.
