YT Zhang, Max QH Meng, L Meng, HL. Ren, HR. Li &amp; Y Chen) sharing perspectives on how knowledge-driven models, data-driven methods, and intelligent control technologies can support the next generation of diagnosis, treatment, and clinical decision-making.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The forum&#8217;s central theme revolved around the integration of &#8220;knowledge-driven&#8221; and &#8220;data-driven&#8221; paradigms for intelligent diagnosis and treatment. Panelists deliberated on how cutting-edge technologies\u2014including advanced AI theories, modern signal processing, and intelligent decision-making and feedback mechanisms\u2014can be applied across the entire clinical workflow, ranging from model-based disease dynamic prediction and intelligent drug dosage regulation to personalized rehabilitation robots and closed-loop neuromodulation systems. This multi-disciplinary exchange aims to drive the transformation of diagnostic and therapeutic models from passive and static to active, dynamic, and closed-loop interventions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Connecting Robotics Innovation with Intelligent Healthcare<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Prof. Ren leads pioneering work in intelligent surgical robotics, soft continuum robots, and medical mechatronics, with a strong focus on translational biomedical engineering. His recent project, &#8220;Embodied Intelligence Systems for Fine Perception and Dexterous Manipulation in Flexible Endoscopy,&#8221; funded as a key national project, aims to develop perceptive, compliant, and intelligent surgical systems.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i.postimg.cc\/ZRB55spf\/CCDC-3.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Following the talk, Prof. Ren received a Certificate of Appreciation from CCDC 2026 and was pictured with Forum Chair Prof. Guanglin Li.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i.postimg.cc\/G28mmgGK\/CCDC-2.jpg\" alt=\"\" style=\"aspect-ratio:1.3333333333333333;object-fit:cover;width:829px;height:auto\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Prof. Ren&#8217;s team&#8217;s developing miniature flexible robots capable of navigating narrow, tortuous lumen branches to perform multi-modal micro-biopsy and immune-sensing in the vicinity of small confined spaces.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The forum concluded with a forward-looking discussion on how the integration of AI, control theory, and robotics can address major clinical challenges, catalyze original technological breakthroughs, and provide strategic support for the development of intelligent healthcare system, bridging foundational robotics and mechatronics with clinical needs to create next-generation smart surgical systems.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>NANJING, May 16, 2026\u00a0\u2013 Prof. Hongliang Ren of The Chinese University of Hong Kong attended the 38th Chinese Control and Decision Conference (CCDC 2026), which opened at the Nanjing Fengda International Hotel and featured a forum titled &#8220;Knowledge and Data-Driven Intelligent Diagnosis and Treatment&#8220;.
