PolyU Academy for Interdisciplinary Research (PAIR) proudly presents Issue 17 of the PAIR Newsletter. As we step into 2026, PAIR continues to chart new territory in research, education and impact, capturing the vibrant momentum of our community. A highlight of this issue is the establishment of the Research Centre for Environmental, Social, and Governance Advancement (RCESGA). This milestone underscores PolyU’s commitment to sustainability, governance and responsible innovation, serving as a catalyst for interdisciplinary research that informs policy, empowers industry and shapes a more equitable future. We also feature PAIR Senior Fellow Prof. George MALLIARAS from the University of Cambridge, whose pioneering work in bioelectronics medicine (BEM) is transforming neural interfaces and medical diagnostics. His insights on clinician-researcher collaboration, university spin-offs and fabrication facilities illustrate the dynamic pathways from research to real-world impact. In addition, readers will find updates on new appointments at PAIR constituent research units, the launch of a new course on sustainable cities, and stories ranging from Hong Kong’s first chip-based quantum network test to advances in intelligent wearables, battery and fuel cell technologies, and eco-block applications in urban renewal.
