(Degree in Chemistry, Material Science, Biomedical Engineering, Biology, Biological Science or related disciplines)

Focuses on micro-/nanorobotics, functional nanomaterials and their biomedical applications, particularly in pathogen sensing. The group has tight collaboration with the Institute of Digestive Disease (IDD) and the Department of Microbiology of The Chinese University of Hong Kong (CUHK). The media report of a recent collaboration can be found here

Experience in development of biomedical device/instrumentation and/or related industrial experience will be advantageous.

(Degree in Neuroscience, Medicine, Biomedical Science, or related disciplines)

This project aims to develop a non-invasive neurostimulation device for pain relief, which is in cooperation with Professor Matthew CHAN in the Department of Anaesthesia and Intensive Care and Professor Linda LAM and Professor Hanna LU from the Department of Psychiatry.

The appointee(s) will work with the research team and clinical collaborators for a fast-paced, sketch-to-trial full-cycle medical device development for pain relief. The appointee(s) will be responsible to assist the research team for

(a) device development;
(b) evaluation of the developed device on cells and animals; and
(c) performing tests and experiments in campus and clinical sites.

He/she will work collaboratively with other research staff and students in both the engineering team and the biological experiment team.

Experience in pain research, neurostimulation, development of biomedical device/instrumentation and/or related industrial experience will be advantageous.
