Xiangzhou District, Zhuhai

A group of experts led by Su Xing, a postdoctoral researcher in gene engineering at Harvard University, visited Xiangzhou-based Health 100 Lab to discuss projects and cooperation on Dec 16. 

Su, a biochip inventor, is the project leader at Gene Chip Manufacturing. He is the pioneer who first put forward the idea to use semiconductor microelectronic chips to sequence DNA, and has developed machinery capable of carrying out gene chip-based genotype analysis. The technology can be widely applied in medical treatment, drug testing, and judicial identification.
