Speaker Prof. Ping ZHANG, Beijing University of Posts and Telecommunications Abstract The deep integration of communication and intelligence is driving a fundamental transformation in next-generation wireless systems. Traditional networks face significant challenges in scalability, adaptability, and flexibility, falling to meet the demands […]

Abstract The brain is a highly nonlinear complex network system supporting diverse cognitive abilities. The locally segregated and globally integrated processing are the two basic foundations of cognition. However, how the brain organises the effective processing of neural information at both local and global scales, so as to support diverse cognitive tasks, is not well […]

Complete two missions at designated booth^ for a chance to win an exclusive gift! […]

Abstract Perception and understanding of the physical world are fundamental to a wide range of applications, from autonomous systems to smart healthcare and human-computer interaction. However, traditional vision-based sensing (e.g., cameras and LiDAR) struggles in adverse weather conditions and occlusions. In this talk, I will discuss how radio frequency (RF) signals provide a powerful alternative […]

Abstract This talk explores the emerging paradigm of AI-empowered mobile edge computing (MEC), where edge nodes jointly perform wireless communication, computation, and sensing close to users. By colocating learning with connectivity and sharing hardware and spectrum, MEC cuts latency and energy while enabling advanced, privacy-aware services at scale. We focus on three pillars and demonstrate […]

Abstract For decades, the (sub-)terahertz (THz) frequency band (often defined as 300 GHz to 3 THz or broader, 100 GHz – 10 THz) had been primarily explored in the context of radar, imaging, and spectroscopy, where multi-gigahertz (GHz) and even THz-wide channels and the properties of terahertz photons offered attractive target accuracy, resolution, and classification […]

Abstract In this talk, we will introduce two innovative types of 3D intelligent metasurfaces: Stacked Intelligent Metasurfaces (SIM) and Flexible Intelligent Metasurfaces (FIM). We will explore their exciting applications in wireless communication and sensing systems. Specifically, SIM is a groundbreaking computing architecture that enables joint signal processing and communication in the electromagnetic (EM) domain. A […]

MSc(Eng)ICES is a new programme jointly offered by the Department of Electrical & Electronic Engineering (EEE), Faculty of Engineering, The University of Hong Kong (HKU) and the Center for Advanced Semiconductors and Integrated Circuits. Prof. Yuhao ZHANG and Prof. Han WANG, the Programme Directors of the Master of Science in Integrated Circuits and Electronic Systems […]

Abstract Arousal fluctuation is known to contribute to fMRI based functional dynamics, but its detailed mechanism is largely unclear. Combining invasive neural recording (electrophysiological recording and fiber photometry) and manipulation (optogenetics and chemogenetics) techniques with awake, unanesthetized animal fMRI provides unique opportunities to unravel the arousal contribution. Highly optimized unanesthetized mouse and marmoset fMRI setups […]

The event time has been revised to start at 2:00 pm. Abstract Integrated Sensing and Communications (ISAC) represents a paradigm shift from conventional communication-only networks toward systems that natively integrate radar-like sensing capabilities. It has become a foundational technology for next-generation wireless systems, including Wi-Fi and 6G networks. Bi-static sensing, where a sensing receiver exploits […]

Abstract The development of whole-body MRI scanners in the late 1980s at field strengths of 1.5T, together with other fundamental technological advances such shielded field gradients and single-shot spatial localization techniques, enabled the non-invasive collection of spectra from the human in just a few minutes of scan time. Since that time, there have been many […]

The event has been rescheduled to December 8, 2025 (Monday). Abstract Resonators are often the first apparatus to be constructed and thoroughly investigated when a new region of the spectrum is being explored. From the days of spark-gap generators in early radio transmission to the more recent maser and laser era, resonant systems have always been essential in […]
