Recognizing Distinguished Contribution in Integrated Circuit Chip Design
A research team led by Prof. Qu Jianan, Professor of the Department of Electronic and Computer Engineering, School of Engineering, HKUST, has introduced a groundbreaking technique that can capture high-resolution images of the awake mice brain in a near non-invasive manner. The advancement promises deeper insights into human brain function in both healthy and diseased conditions.
