For many years, Lu Yi-chun, a professor in CUHK’s Department of Mechanical and Automation Engineering, has toiled away on a solution that she hopes will enhance the safety of battery storage but still be cost-effective. Her work on polysulfide flow batteries has long garnered acclaim, and now she is taking her mission to the next level.

With a clear and pronounced emphasis on promoting “Research and Innovation”, CUHK has been working diligently to bring out talents and pioneers in the industry. Recently, CUHK scholars received global and national recognition for their research excellence, among whom Professor Dennis LO from Medicine has become the first Chinese scientist to receive the Royal Medal in biological sciences.
