The Faculty¹ of Engineering at the University of Hong Kong (HKU) and the Harvard John A. Paulson School of Engineering and Applied² Science (Harvard SEAS) signed a Memorandum³ of Understanding (MoU) in Hong Kong on Sunday to set up a Laboratory for Instrumentation for Precision Medicine.

香港大学工学院与哈佛大学约翰·A·保尔森工程与应用科学学院周日在香港签署一份谅解备忘录，双方将建立一个精准医学仪器实验室。

Both sides aimed to build a laboratory focusing on medical instrumentation for microfluidic-based diagnostics, drug delivery and sensor⁴ development in the age of precision medicine.

"The HKSAR government is committed to attracting world-leading research institutions to conduct collaborative research," a press release from HKU quoted Carrie Lam, chief executive of China's Hong Kong Special Administrative⁵ Region (HKSAR), as saying at the signing ceremony.

"The signing of the MoU between the HKU Faculty of Engineering and Harvard SEAS, which signifies enhanced collaboration⁶ and cross-fertilization in the research area of precision medicine in Hong Kong, is a very significant step in this endeavor," she said.

Precision medicine is an emerging field of research by scientists. Innovation and technological⁷ development in the area will open up a new paradigm⁸ in healthcare leading to the customization of healthcare, with medical decisions, treatments, practices, or products being tailored to individuals.

"The collaboration will enable the talented engineers and scientists in both universities to create significant innovative⁹ instrumentations for precision medicine, and will facilitate the design of devices and treatments that will impact health care across the world," Executive Dean for Education and Research at Harvard SEAS Fawwaz Habbal said at the event.
