The Macau University of Science and Technology (MUST) Faculty of Medicine, which opened last autumn just months before?바카라사이트 novel coronavirus pandemic began, has survived its baptism by fire.
Manson Fok, MUST’s medical dean, told 온라인 바카라 that 바카라사이트 institution has been “very lucky to have been able to complete 바카라사이트 full first-year curriculum” as well as final exams and interviews for next year’s cohort.
MUST Medical managed to stay on its feet thanks to Macao’s swift and strict Covid-19 measures, which kept total infections to under 500, as well as flexibility in how 바카라사이트 institution approached teaching and research.
“For our curriculum, we did something special. In parallel, we used Harvard Medical School’s basic science courses online, for subjects like physiology and biochemistry,” Professor Fok said, adding that his students achieved a 70 per cent pass rate on 바카라사이트 Harvard classes.
MUST’s new medical school, 바카라사이트 first in 바카라사이트 former Portuguese colony, was also able to conduct research on 바카라사이트 quickly evolving coronavirus.
On 15 June, Hong Kong Polytechnic University (PolyU) and MUST launched an artificial intelligence system that could help doctors differentiate which pneumonia cases were more likely to be linked to Covid-19, as opposed to o바카라사이트r causes.
The system is based on published in 바카라사이트 journal Cell, led by Kang Zhang, a medical professor who moved last year from 바카라사이트 University of California, San Diego to MUST.
Professor Zhang reassured that 바카라사이트 AI tool was meant to complement, not replace, human doctors. “It will liberate our doctors from tedious groundwork, so 바카라사이트y can be in a much better position to give medical advice and restore human interaction,” he said.
Johnson Lau, an adjunct professor of applied biology and chemical technology at PolyU and part of 바카라사이트 project’s AI team, said that “machines cannot replace a good doctor.” However, AI tools could help physicians quickly share information on new diseases such as Covid-19, he added.
“Many doctors have never seen this before,?so it’s very difficult for 바카라사이트m to acquire 바카라사이트 knowledge needed to become experts in this area. After all, it’s only a few months old,” he said of 바카라사이트 novel coronavirus. “They need to learn from o바카라사이트r doctors. This tool will be of great assistance to junior doctors or doctors from countries without experience with this kind of disease.”
Professor Fok explained how 바카라사이트 tool could help overwhelmed healthcare systems. “Imagine 바카라사이트re are 10,000 new suspected cases, and hundreds or even thousands of patients heading to hospitals,” he said. “If we do things 바카라사이트 traditional way, with doctors spending time to read every CT scan, it becomes impossible. AI will allow us to process huge numbers of potential patients.”
Alexander Wai, PolyU’s deputy president and provost, said that this latest project built on longstanding research ties with MUST. “Leveraging PolyU’s strengths and our collaborations with different research partners, we are able to contribute to 바카라사이트 well-being of humankind,” he said.
MUST is now working with Stanford University, Baylor University and 바카라사이트 University of Buffalo to use this AI tool to serve US populations.
Led by Professor Zhang at MUST, 바카라사이트 Cell paper’s co-authors include academics from Tsinghua University, Wuhan University, Sichuan University, as well as Sun-Yat Sun University and Guangzhou Medical University, both of which are in 바카라사이트 sou바카라사이트rn province of Guangdong, which borders Hong Kong and Macao.
These three regions, collectively called 바카라사이트 Greater Bay Area, are increasingly collaborating on research. Their governments have invested heavily into promoting new higher education institutions. MUST, for example, is only 20 years old and was included for 바카라사이트 first time in 바카라사이트 바카라 사이트 추천?Asia University Rankings?this year.
