报告内容简介

    Droplets of nano-/subnano-liter are useful in a wide range of applications, particularly when their size is uniform and controllable. Examples include biochemistry, biomedical engineering, food industry, pharmaceuticals, and material sciences. One example of their many fundamental medical applications is the therapeutic delivery system for delivering site-specific therapy to targeted organs in the body and as the carriers for newer therapeutic options. The size, size distribution, generation rate, structure, and manipulation at nano-/subnano-liter scales are critical in all these applications. 

    Prof. Wang will show the big impact of small microfluidic droplets with an overview of their generation, manipulation, and application. Their precision generation counts on system geometries, fluid properties and flow rates; their effective manipulation is magically enabled with the phase separation, microfluidic channels, and fiber or light touch; their beautiful application includes embolic particles, smart colloidosome drug delivery, and super anti-pathogenic coatings.

    Prof. L. Q. Wang received his Ph.D. from the University of Alberta, Canada, and is currently a chair professor in the Department of Mechanical Engineering and the Biomedical Engineering Programme at the University of Hong Kong (HKU). He also serves as the Director and the Chief Scientist for the Laboratory for Nanofluids and Thermal Engineering at the Zhejiang Institute of Research and Innovation (HKU-ZIRI), the University of Hong Kong. Prof. Wang has 26 years of HKU experience in transport phenomena, biomedical engineering, materials, nanotechnology, biotechnology, energy and environment, thermal and power engineering, and mathematics, and ~2 years of industry experience in technology and IP development, management, and transfer as a Chief Scientist and Global CTO. 

    In addition to 11 scholarly monographs/books, five book chapters, 80+ plenary/keynote lectures at international conferences, and over 180 invited lectures in universities/industries/organizations, Prof. Wang has published 260+ papers in various prestigious journals including Science, Nature Nanotechnology, Nature Communications, Science Advances, Advanced Materials, PNAS, Physical Review Letters, Chemical Reviews, Physics Reports, and Materials Today, many of which have been widely used by researchers all over the world. 

    Prof. Wang has also filed 40+ patents and software copyrights, and developed, with an international team consisting of about 100 scientists and engineers, a state-of-the-art thermal control system for the Alpha Magnetic Spectrometer (AMS) on the International Space Station that ensures AMS and all its sub-detectors working at their designed temperatures ±1℃ for an environment temperature variation from -40℃ to 60℃ every 90 minutes. His work has been widely featured by local, national, and international media, journals, and magazines, and received recognition through a number of awards, including the 2021 Gold Medal of International Exhibition of Inventions of Geneva, the 2018 TechConnect Global Innovation Award, the 2018 Silver Medal of International Exhibition of Inventions of Geneva, and the 2017 OSA Innovation Award, among others.
