Brief BiosketchDr Gary C.P. Tsui was awarded a first-class honours degree in Manufacturing Engineering and a PhD degree from The Hong Kong Polytechnic University. Dr Tsui is currently an Associate Professor and ISE degree Programme Leader at Department of Industrial and Systems Engineering of The Hong Kong Polytechnic University. His specialism is in the field of composite material engineering and micro-/nano-fabrication. Dr Tsui has authored or co-authored over 130 papers in referred journals and holds two issued US patents. With his work recognized internationally, he is currently editorial board members of various international journals, including “Nanotechnology Reviews”, “Journal of Biomedical Engineering and Informatics” and “World Journal of Engineering”.
He also served as Editorial and Advisory Board Member of The 28^thAnnual International Conference on Composites/Nano Engineeringheld at Spain in 2018 and Chairman of Symposium of Bio-inspired Nano-(composites) ofThe 24^thAnnual International Conference on Composites/Nano Engineeringheld at China in 2016, as well as Chairman of Organizing Committee ofThe 11^thInternational Conference on Technology Education atHong Kong in 2015.
Since 2005, he has actively taken part in a learned society “Institute of Industrial and Systems Engineers (Hong Kong)”- IISE(HK) for promoting the discipline of Industrial engineering, and was elected to be President of the Hong Kong chapter for the year of 2014/2015. He was a Visiting Scholar at the Biomechanics Laboratory of the Department of Mechanical and Materials Engineering in the University of Nebraska-Lincoln, Nebraska, USA (June – Sep 2019) and a Visiting Academic at the Faculty of Engineering and Surveying and the Centre of Excellence in Engineered Fibre Composites in the University of Southern Queensland, Australia (Nov 2011 – Nov 2012).
