Prof. FAN Zhiyong won the inaugural Bank of China (Hong Kong) Science & Tech Innovation Prize 2022 in the new materials category for his invention of the 3D artificial eye!
The BOCHK Science and Technology Innovation Prize (STIP), newly established by Hong Kong Alliance of Technology and Innovation, and sponsored by the Bank of China (Hong Kong), aims at promoting the development of science and technology innovation in Hong Kong by rewarding outstanding scientists and research teams who have made significant contributions to innovative scientific research in Hong Kong.
There are five eligible fields: Artificial Intelligence and Robotics, Life and Health, New Materials and New Energy, Advanced Manufacturing, and Fintech. Awardees are nominated generally by scientists and representatives of industries. The work is evaluated by the Review Committee composed of experts with great academic, specialist or professional standing and high integrity.
