Recently, Optoseeker Biotech welcomed a visit from Professor Huabing Yin of the School of Engineering at the University of Glasgow. Professor Yin's visit brought a leading-edge international scientific perspective and opportunities for collaboration to Optoseeker Biotech, as both parties engaged in in-depth discussions on digital microfluidics and single-cell analysis technology.
Professor Yin is a tenured professor in the Department of Biomedical Engineering at the James Watt School of Engineering, University of Glasgow. The school is one of the oldest engineering education institutions in the UK, where James Watt, the inventor of the steam engine, studied, worked, and conducted research. As a member of the UK's Russell Group, the University of Glasgow's School of Engineering enjoys a very high international reputation in fields such as biomedical engineering, micro-nano fabrication, and intelligent sensing and systems.
Professor Yin is an internationally renowned expert in microfluidics, single-cell analysis, and integrated biosensing technology. She combines microfluidic platforms with advanced imaging and spectroscopy techniques for single-cell analysis and founded the "Raman-activated cell sorting" (RACS) technology. This has enabled a wide range of discoveries in areas such as cancer research, antibiotic resistance, environmental microbiology, and new devices. Professor Yin has published over 100 high-level papers (including in
During her visit, Professor Huabing Yin expressed high recognition for Optoseeker Biotech's independently developed technologies, including the Optobot® series of optofluidic single-cell sorting systems, AI-assisted screening algorithms, and core digital microfluidics modules. The two sides held comprehensive technical discussions on topics such as optoelectronic tweezers (OET) in high-throughput single-cell screening, cell manipulation, and AI-powered automated analysis. Furthermore, Professor Yin gained a detailed understanding of Optoseeker's R&D strategies for system integration, application implementation, and product iteration, offering constructive advice on technology commercialization.
This exchange has provided a valuable opportunity for Optoseeker Biotech to further broaden its international perspective and strengthen collaboration on cutting-edge technologies. The professional insights and international experience shared by Professor Huabing Yin have offered significant inspiration for the company's continuous improvement in technological upgrades, product optimization, and its mechanism for research collaboration.
