CUHK Research: Changing the world

Translating medical and engineering knowledge into healthcare technologies that directly benefit patients is a key pursuit and core strength of CUHK. Its Multi-Scale Medical Robotics Center (MRC) is a trailblazer in bringing the worlds of medicine and engineering together. In collaboration with other world-leading institutes – plus visionary commercial partners – the MRC is further advancing minimally invasive, high precision surgical robotic technologies. It is also incubating affordable medical robots as pressure mounts for better patient care in hospitals in Hong Kong, the mainland and world.
