▲Fruits
University of Shanghai for Science and Technology and Xianju County, Taizhou City jointly established a medical device innovation and transfer Institute to effectively promote the scientific and technological innovation and industrial development in the field of medical devices, cultivate an array of high-quality industrial talents and launch a lot of innovative achievements, supporting the construction of Shanghai Science and technology Innovation Center and the development of key industries.
▲Group
Research groups in USST have never failed to seize every opportunity to be bold. Sky is the limit when it comes to the place for scientific research. For example, The “THz wall reinforcement detector” is led by Dr. Yuan Minghui and team members from the School of Optical-electrical and Computer Engineering. It is compact and portable, and can take advantage of characteristics of terahertz waves and millimeter waves, i.e. their high penetrability into nonmetallic building entities such as cement, bricks, lime, etc. and almost zero penetrability into metals, which permits the examination of diameters, positions and materials of the bars without damage to the wall. Dr. Liu Na from the School of Medical Instrument and Food Engineering worked together with students from the Institute of Machine Intelligence is collecting data in Zhengzhou East Railway Station West Square and the Forest of Zhengzhou which are overcrowded with people streaming, to develop the intelligent cleaning robot. Prof. Wang Yong, from the College of Communication and Art Design, instead of stopping in his steps, was busy carrying out an on-site reconnaissance, field surveying and mapping, getting to know about the needs of villagers and so on. He led the team members to be pioneers in groping forward bravely to create a distinctive and beautiful countryside with their wisdom and feelings.
