On the afternoon of 25 May 2023, the Alumni Affairs Office organised a campus tour on well-being, showcasing the advanced rehabilitation facilities that nurture future professionals. The tour took a group of health-conscious alumni through four specific classrooms, where researchers and scholars shared their expertise on how the latest technology and equipment could optimise rehabilitation efficiency and effectiveness.
Among the inspiring researches presented by the Department of Rehabilitation Sciences, the healthy joint studies of the Sports Training and Rehabilitation Laboratory and the interactive rehabilitation programme of the Cardiopulmonary and Exercise Physiology Laboratory piqued our participants’ interest the most. Many of them were keen to participate as research subjects in various disciplines, contributing proactively to both the University and society.
Like other Alumni Tourcations, this campus tour was not merely a showcase of the Department’s success but also a fun and interactive experience for participants. Some alumni volunteered to experience how the brain-computer interface (BCI) produced signals to move a patient’s arm, while some of them tried rehabilitation games that trained patients’ adaptability. It was such an engaging time to know more about various developments in the field.
Exploring areas unrelated to one’s own discipline is always interesting. It is even more rewarding to know that the alma mater is persistently investing in and developing to contribute to society as a whole. Please continue to join our Alumni Tourcations to rediscover all aspects of PolyU!
