Inovativna biomedicina: Centri znanstvene izvrsnosti u Hrvatskoj Znanstvena otkri?a u biomedicini su naj?eš?e primjenjiva. Ako autor u vlastitom otkri?u ne može procijeniti mogu?u primjenu u biomedicini onda ga naziva fundamentalnim. U propozicijama za pisanje projekata Europske unije jedan od najvažnijih uvjeta procjene vrijednosti projekta u podru?ju biomedicine jeste njegova primjenjivost i utjecaj na gospodarstvo EU. Da li u Hrvatskoj postoje uvjet za znanstvena otkri?a u biomedicini koja mogu utjecati na razvoj gospodarstva? Koji su to centri izvrsnosti koji imaju istraživa?ki potencijal otkri?a inovativnih biomedicinskih proizvoda? To su pitanja na koja ?u pokušati odgovoriti u svom izlaganju

Guest Blogger June Zhu on the 8th Sino-American Technology and Engineering Conference (SATEC): Last week, I attended the 8th Sino-American Technology and Engineering Conference (SATEC), hosted by the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology (MIIT). This year’s topics of discussions are: Advanced Manufacturing, Information Technology, Biomedicine and Environmental Protection. The paper I submitted for the conference was titled “Non-disruptive Energy Monitoring System Based on Wireless Sensor Network (WSN)” and I was selected as a part the team of Information Technology. Along with 8 other experts from US and Taiwan, working with a team of Chinese experts, we visited companies in Shaoxin, Xiqiao, Guangzhou, and Foshan. After every day’s visit, each of us submitted individual reports summarize our findings and provide recommendation. At the end of the week, we consolidated our reports into a single proposal for the Chinese Government. Proposals from different teams were presented at the Great Hall of the People in Beijing and later Chinese Vice Premier Zhang Dejiang came and met with all the experts.
