October 23, 2021

On the afternoon of October 22, 2021, the Biological and Brain Engineering Department of Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology (hereinafter referred to as KAIST)-Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Biomedical Engineering bilateral seminar ended successfully. Affected by the epidemic, the event was held online . Ye Jian, deputy dean of the School of Biomedical Engineering, Ki-Hun Jeong, head of the Department of Biology and Brain Engineering at KAIST, and nearly a hundred teachers and students in the fields of neuroscience and engineering, medical instruments and imaging, and nanobiomedicine from both Chinese and Korean universities participated online.

The Chinese and foreign parties respectively introduced the basic situation of their respective institutions and subject areas and extended a warm welcome to the Chinese and foreign teachers and students participating in the activity. The event invited 6 well-known professors from China and South Korea to share wonderful academic reports. Combined with the college’s "three horizontal and three vertical" scientific development layout, the event conducted seminars in neuroengineering, medical instruments, biomaterials and other disciplines, focusing on international academics. Frontier issues, discuss important technology research and development, promote academic exchanges and cooperation, create a free and diversified academic atmosphere, build a bridge for academic interaction and exchanges for the first-line scientific researchers of both sides in the first time, and contribute to the start of joint scientific research cooperation projects between the two parties in the future Prepare.

Frequent interactions and discussions among scholars continued to heat up the academic enthusiasm of the venue. Next, China and South Korea will further discuss cooperation in personnel training and teacher reserve on the basis of scientific research cooperation. It is believed that the cooperation between the two parties is another strong alliance in Asia and even the international academic arena. This will not only become a long-term cooperation between the two parties. This is a good start, and it will also truly promote each other’s internationalization of teaching, scientific research and curriculum systems.
