Professor Lau is deeply honoured to receive the award. He said, ‘My goal is to ensure that students can learn effectively through the Student-Teacher-Experience-Peer modality and I try to make my lectures enjoyable and memorable.’ Professor Lau has introduced a new form of lectures, known as ‘hands-on lectures’, where students learn robotics fundamentals in groups with a physical robot arm in front of them. With a tailor-made tablet application, these learning tools aid students in better understanding abstract concepts. 人工智能結合血液測試 AI-powered Blood Tests 由生物醫學工程學系周仁杰教授領導的團隊，研發了全球首部人工智能便攜 式定量相位顯微鏡，能分辨健康血液樣本中形形色色的白血球，使血液測試 變得便宜快捷。測試結果可在數分鐘內得出，準確度超過九成。顯微鏡重量 不過五公斤，大小與公事包相若，可輕易帶到任何地方使用。 Led by Prof. Zhou Renjie of the Department of Biomedical Engineering, a CUHK research team developed a first-of-its-kind AI-enabled portable quantitative phase microscope that can differentiate between the many types of white blood cells in a healthy volunteer’s blood sample and make blood tests cheaper and faster. Results can be offered in a matter of minutes with over 90% accuracy. The microscope weighs less than 5 kg and is around the size of a briefcase, meaning it can easily be carried to any place for use. The results of this year’s Ten Outstanding Young Persons Selection were out on 21 October. Among the eight honourees on the bill, four were from CUHK. Pasu Ng, Dissecting Laboratory Manager and Senior Embalmer of the School of Biomedical Sciences, is a crusader for body donation and life and death education, whose work inspires members of the public to rediscover the value of life through death. Arnold Chan, an alumnus of the Global Business Programme, founded Teach4HK, where he recruits teachers to teach at grassroots schools to push for educational equality. Having developed by far the most effective treatment for myopia, Prof. Jason Yam of the Department of Ophthalmology and Visual Sciences spares no effort to campaign for eye health through running children eye care schemes and public education programmes. An alumna of music, Louise Kwong fights the uphill battle of establishing herself as a virtuosic bel canto singer in the European operatic scene. Her hard work paid off as she became the first soprano from Hong Kong to enrol in the ‘Fabbrica’ Young Artist Program at the Teatro dell’Opera di Roma. The selection committee remarked that though hailing from vastly different backgrounds, the honourees all share a love of life and an indefatigable spirit, which enable them to rise above trials and setbacks, fulfil their calling and bring light to the society. 本年度十大傑出青年選舉結果於10月21日 公布，八名得主中，中大人佔其四：生物醫 學學院解剖室經理、資深遺體防腐師伍桂 麟多年來推廣遺體捐贈和生死教育，啟導 大眾知死知生，從死亡悟出生命的意義； 環球商業學課程校友陳君洋創辦良師香 港，培訓老師往基層學校任教，促進教育 平等；眼科及視覺科學學系副教授、國際 小兒眼科評議會教育委員會主席任卓昇 研發迄今最有效並廣獲全球採用的近視 療法，更走進社區推動兒童護眼及公眾教 育計劃；音樂系校友鄺勵齡多年備嘗艱苦 追逐歌劇夢，終成本港首位入選羅馬歌劇 院青年藝術家計劃的女高音，在歐洲殿堂 唱出一片天。評審稱，本屆傑青雖來自不 同界別，然而共通點是熱愛生命、克服險 難挫折，最終成就自己、照亮社會。 八傑青得主中大人佔半 Four CUHK Members Honoured as Outstanding Young Persons 宣 布 事 項 / A nnouncements
