Led by Professor Ke Wei from the Faculty of Applied Sciences at Macao Polytechnic University, PhD students Wu Zewei, Wang Cui and Zhang Wei in Computer Applied Technology collaborated with researchers from Beihang University and Beijing Forestry University. This collaborative effort culminated in the creation of a cutting-edge dual-camera system designed to monitor the actions of aquatic organisms in a real-time, three-dimensional setting. This system facilitates comprehensive collection of data on aquatic animal behaviour, laying a robust groundwork for advancing research in ecological preservation and environmental stewardship.

Forty years ago, no one would have believed that the device in the palm of your hand could be a computer. This marvel was made possible through the relentless research and development of miniaturised, high-efficiency electronic components. The nanoscale magnetic structure of magnetic skyrmions is considered by scientists to be a highly promising new generation of data carriers. The research team led by Dr. Wang Duo from the Faculty of Applied Sciences at Macao Polytechnic University proposes a mechanism for generating polar skyrmions through in-depth studies of the complex behaviours of magnetic skyrmions. Their research has been published in the prestigious international journal npj 2D Materials and Applications, part of the Nature series. This work provides new insights and foundations for semiconductor material research, potentially breaking the physical limits of semiconductor technology and leading to further evolution in both the size and performance of electronic devices.

In the perpetual competition for survival, both humans and bacteria are in a constant state of evolution to better suit their changing environments. Tuberculosis, a disease with roots stretching back to ancient times, has been no stranger to this evolutionary dance. Thanks to scientific and medical advancements, anti-tuberculosis drugs have greatly reduced the disease’s spread and lethality. Yet, Mycobacterium tuberculosis is developing resistance to these traditional drugs at an alarming rate, underscoring the pressing need for innovative treatment methods. Macao Polytechnic University spearheaded the launch of the Centre for Artificial Intelligence Driven Drug Discovery (AIDD) in 2022. This centre is at the forefront of medical research, using artificial intelligence (AI) technology to design new drugs. Working with partners from academia and industry, the AIDD team is on a mission to find new substances that can fight tuberculosis through AI driven drug discovery, hoping to create better treatments for tuberculosis sooner.

Hans Christian Andersen once said, “To travel is to live,” capturing the very essence of what it means to explore the world beyond our doorsteps. As we tread through the corridors of time, our journeys lead us to the storied doorways of heritage sites, where every stone and carving whispers tales of yesteryear. In today’s postmodern era, these whispers have transformed into a dialogue between the past and the present, with travellers seeking not just to witness history but to experience it through a mosaic of cultural narratives.

Every day, in neighbourhoods around the globe, there are children who step into classrooms to learn a new language.

Have you ever turned to the internet when feeling under the weather? In our digital age, the internet has become the go-to source of information for many, especially when it comes to health concerns. It's a treasure trove of knowledge at our fingertips. Yet this convenience doesn’t come without its pitfalls.

Medical imaging, a common non-invasive technique used in physical examinations, enables the detection of physiological structures and pathological conditions within organs or tissues.

Smart buildings, being considered as the fundamental infrastructure of a city, integrate smart technologies into design, management, environment, communication, energy conservation, convenience and community development. They play a pivotal role in shaping our ecosystems, beautifying our urban environment, and uplifting the quality of life.

An international research team formed by the Faculty of Applied Sciences of Macao Polytechnic University (MPU) advances some interdisciplinary and innovative applied research to unlock the potential of EVs and their batteries, enhancing sustainable transport to facilitate clean mobility and energy efficiency.
