His research interest covers a broad range of subject matters, including ultra-fast optical imaging for imaging flow cytometry and cell-based assay; high-speed in-vivo brain imaging; computational approaches for single-cell analysis. His pervious researches, such as energy harvesting in silicon photonics and the World’s fastest optical imaging system, have attracted worldwide press coverage and featured in many science and technology review magazines such as MIT Technology Review, EE Times and Science News. He received Early Career Award 2012-2013 by the Research Grants Council (RGC) in Hong Kong. He also received the Outstanding Young Research Award 2015 at HKU as well as 14th Chinese Science and Technology Award for Young Scientists in 2016. His recent research on ultrafast optofluidic imaging technologies, dubbed “ATOM” and “FACED”, have also been covered by media and scientific magazines. He is author or coauthor of over 160 journal publications, conference papers and book chapters. He holds 3 granted and 4 pending US patents on high-speed optical imaging technologies. He is a co-founder of start-up company commericalizing the high-speed microscopy technology for clinical diagnostic applications.
