It is my great honour to apply to join the Hong Kong Laureate Forum. I begin my independent academic career in Hong Kong for over a year working on interdisciplinary research at the intersection between physics, chemistry and electronics to enable next generation bioelectronics and biosensor technologies. Prior to my appointment in Hong Kong, I have carried out my postdoctoral training in TU Dresden, Germany from 2019 and 2023 after I received my PhD from University of Cambridge, UK. This forum would provide me with the opportunity to exchange ideas and views on breakthrough technologies with world leading scientists and fellow young scientists. I believe this event would be important for me to expand my academic network and connections to foster new research collaborations within Hong Kong and beyond.

Organic semiconductors have revolutionized the small/medium display market and are enabling emerging applications such as bioelectronics, thermoelectrics and photodetectors due to their biocompatibility, excellent optical properties and low temperature processability with low carbon footprint. My current research interests are focused on developing new device concepts based on organic semiconductors together with innovative manufacturing methods to enable high performance biosensors, bioelectronics and neuromorphic computing hardware architecture.
