Congratulations to Dr Man Ting AU on receiving the 2025 iCANX Young Scientists Award!

Established in 2021, the iCANX Young Scientists Award is an annual award that recognises and honours leading young scientists worldwide for their exceptional achievements.

As one of the three awardees from PolyU, Dr AU earned praise for her breakthrough research “Revitalising joints – In situ CAR Therapy for Osteoarthritis Treatment”. Her innovative Chimeric Antigen Receptor (CAR) therapy targets senescence in osteoarthritic joints, offering a long-lasting, disease-modifying treatment to halt progression and revitalise joint tissue without the need for surgery.

Congratulations once again to Dr AU for her excellence in research innovation!
