welcome to National Central University

The Sang Soo Lee Award, established jointly by the OSA and the OSK, recognizes eminent individuals who have made a major contribution to the development of optics and photonics in their home countries through their endeavor to conduct outstanding research and education and eventually have acquired substantial academic and economic results.

Multi-satellite remote sensing is an indispensable part of a modern state’s spatial information infrastructure. The CSRSR at NCU and AIRBUS, the European multinational corporation, formally signed a contract to activate the “direct reception” of SPOT-6 and SPOT-7 earth observing satellite data, making CSRSR an official DRS of SPOT-6/7.

By collecting and examining satellite remote sensing data and long-term fisheries statistics, Dr. Oey Lie-Yauw, Professor of the Graduate Institute of Hydrological and Oceanic Sciences (IHOS) at NCU, and his research team discovered that about 40% of changes in mackerel catches were influenced by the change of the Kuroshio, the “Black Current” in Japanese.

Sponsored by the GSSAP established by the MOST, Dr. Huang Chen-Han, Assistant professor of the Department of Biomedical Sciences and Engineering at NCU, visited the top medical schools and institutes of the world — HMS of Harvard University and MGH to conduct research, developing the iEAT, the medical device for allergens detection in the Internet of Things.

Based in the “Matrix Biology Laboratory” on the campus of NCU, Dr. Hsu and his team applied the world’s cutting-edge technology to analyzing characteristics of one single immunocyte in the tissues of kidney cancer, researching on new prevention mechanism and targeted therapy and finding fresh turning points for innovative translational research.
