Transfer Printing Technologies and Applications

Changhong Cao is the Director of the McGill Nano Factory, and an Assistant Professor in the Department of Mechanical Engineering, at McGill University, in Quebec, Canada. His research activities focus on the development of printing technologies (2D and 3D), mechano-electrochemical studies of energy storage materials, as well as synthesis, assembly, and multi-scale characterizations of low-dimensional materials. Dr. Cao was a recipient of the Microsystem and Nanoengineering Outstanding Young Researcher Award (2020) and has authored publications in premium journals such as Science Advances, Nano Letters, and ACS Nano. Dr. Sun is a Professor at the University of Toronto. He is a Tier I Canada Research Chair and the Director of Robotic Institute, University of Toronto. His Advanced Micro and Nanosystems Laboratory specializes in developing innovative robotic and AI technologies for reproductive medicine. He was elected Fellow of ASME (American Society of Mechanical Engineers), IEEE (Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers), AAAS (American Association for the Advancement of Science), NAI (US National Academy of Inventors), and AIMBE (American Institute of Medicine and Biomedical Engineering) for his work on micro/nano devices, robotic systems and AI technologies.
