On Thursday, July 4, from 4:30 PM to 5:30 PM, the STAR Lecture was held in Room 118 of Building 301. The event was conducted in a hybrid format, allowing students from various disciplines—both undergraduate and graduate—to participate freely either in person or online.
The invited speaker, Professor Nicholas Xuanlai Fang from the Department of Mechanical Engineering at The University of Hong Kong, delivered a lecture on “Advanced Microfabrication and Physics-Driven Design of Hydrogels.”
Professor Fang shared cutting-edge research that bridges biomedical engineering and acoustics, introducing materials and design technologies aimed at controlling complex cellular environments and advancing diagnostic and therapeutic techniques.
The lecture offered valuable insight into how diverse fields such as mechanical engineering, life sciences, and materials science can be fused together. Students were given the opportunity to see how traditional engineering knowledge can be expanded toward real-world medical applications.
In particular, the session proved meaningful for students exploring their future research directions. It deepened their understanding of the importance and potential of multidisciplinary research, while also providing inspiration for designing creative and socially impactful projects in the future.
