๐Congratulations to the team of #PolyUStudents who won the championship at the HKAES 2023-24 Pitch Competition on Grand Challenge Engineering Topics for University Students, supported by the Innovation and Technology Commission of the HKSAR!
Our students, who are members of the College of Undergraduate Researchers and Innovators (#CURI) enrolled in the Undergraduate Research and Innovation Scheme (#URIS), showcased their exceptional pitching skills on their innovative AI-enhanced airport ground optimisation solution to reduce carbon emissions from aircraft ground operations, securing themselves tickets to attend the global competition in Washington, USA representing Hong Kong! โ๏ธ๐
๐ป๐ Proposing a system that trains a predictive model on assessing how operational factors affect emissions output and identifying strategic recommendations tailored for each airport and airline, the student-led winning solution aims to help the aviation industry lower its environmental impact through airport resource utilisation substantially. ๐๐
A special thank you to the department advisors Ir Prof. Horace MUI, Dr Allen Wang, Dr K.H. Ng, Dr Y.Y. Ding for their guidance and support throughout the challenge.

ใ๐งซ๐#PolyUStudents Team Made History in iGEM 2023๐๐งฌใ
๐ซ Our PolyUโs inaugural iGEM students team made history with their first silver medal win๐
, alongside global top universities at the prestigious 2023 International Genetically Engineered Machine (iGEM) competition held this November in France. ๐ซ
The innovative potential of our students-created peptide-based bispecific antibody โ#Polyneerab โ was clear, and it was proved right by our student team " #PolYneer " of 13 undergraduates from the Department of Applied Biology and Chemical Technology. They made it to discover this game-changing yet cost-effective solution that can help combat the therapeutic resistance of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients in the hope of improving their treatment outcomes. โจ๐
Congratulations to the winning student team again. We canโt wait to see you all shining on the biotech stage in Hong Kong and develop innovative solutions that benefit public health worldwide. ๐งซ๐งฌ๐
