Researchers from the Chinese University of Hong Kong have identified the Carnobacterium maltaromaticum bacterium as a potential oral probiotic prophylactic to increase vitamin D production and reinvigorate gut microbiota to prevent colorectal cancer (CRC) in women.
Researchers from The Chinese University of Hong Kong and collaborators have discovered a promising target for immunotherapy in non-small-cell lung carcinoma (NSCLC). Their study investigated the regulation of tumor-associated neutrophils (TANs), in particular TGF-β1/Smad3 signaling, and their response to the microenvironment in NSCLC patients.
HONG KONG – Researchers at The Chinese University of Hong Kong (CUHK) have developed an artificial intelligence (AI)-based system for the automated, rapid and accurate detection of COVID-19 infections in chest computed tomography (CT) images. The system can provide immediate results, without the need for clinicians to interpret images. It could be potentially used in radiology imaging departments in hospitals.
HONG KONG – A research team at the Chinese University of Hong Kong (CUHK) has developed a fully automated, low-cost and rapid microrobotic diagnostic system that can be used with multiple pathogens, including COVID-19. The system works by integrating fluorescent microrobots with an external magnetic actuation system to detect pathogens in patient samples.
