Building on the successful joint academic event co-organized by the Taiwan-Thailand Science and Technology Center (TTSTC), the NCKU Department of Biomedical Engineering (BME), and Prince of Songkla University (PSU) in Hat Yai this past July, NCKU was pleased to welcome a specialized delegation of three scholars from PSU on Wednesday, December 3rd. 

The program featured a comprehensive itinerary designed to foster research synergy, including in-depth tours of the Medical Device Innovation Center (MDIC) and various specialized laboratories within the Department of Biomedical Engineering. These visits allowed the PSU delegation to witness NCKU’s cutting-edge research facilities firsthand and engage in technical discussions with local researchers.
