    Pubdate: 2024-11-13
  • On November 6, 2024, the first special lecture of the "Med-X Journal Young Scholars Forum," co-hosted by Med-X Journal and the Ministry of Education's Engineering Research Center for Digital Medicine, was successfully held. The lecture attracted numerous scholars from universities and research institutions such as Shanghai Jiao Tong University, Fudan University, Wuhan University, Donghua University, Sichuan University, and Xi'an Jiaotong University.

    Researcher Li Zhou from the Beijing Institute of Nanoenergy and Nanosystems, Chinese Academy of Sciences, served as the guest speaker for this lecture, presenting on the topic "Development and Application of Self-Powered Medical Devices." The event was chaired by Associate Researcher Sui Xiaohong from the School of Biomedical Engineering at Shanghai Jiao Tong University.

    Researcher Li Zhou began with the importance of electrical activity in human life activities and delved into the development history of electrical stimulation technology and its wide application in clinical settings. Based on the principle of triboelectric generators, he innovatively developed self-powered medical devices, particularly focusing on clinical issues to create a new type of self-powered wireless cardiac pacemaker with independent intellectual property rights. Additionally, he explored electronic drugs and cell traction force measurement devices.

    The successful holding of this forum provided young scholars with an opportunity for in-depth exchange with renowned experts in the field and offered a valuable academic platform for the latest advancements in the field of biomedical engineering.
