Host Brief
Introduction:
Aligned with the “Healthy China 2030” initiative, our team creates next-generation optoelectronic devices that enable precision diagnosis and therapy for major diseases. To date, we have authored 50+ peer-reviewed papers and delivered 20 invited/contributed talks at international conferences. Our technologies are being translated into clinical prototypes, and we have co-driven the R&D roadmap of several medical-technology start-ups.
[Keywords: biosensors, nanophotonics, microfluidics, point-of-care diagnostics, clinical translation]
