SIGHT FYP Team Wins President's Cup Gold Award

Congratulations to the CSE-SIGHT FYP Team that took home the Gold Award at the 2017 HKUST President's Cup, with their project "Early Detection of Diabetic Retinopathy (DR) by Smartphone App". The team members are Laiman Evan Roberto, Stanza Tan Erez Pablo and Wijaya Reynaldi Octavianus, and the project is co-supervised by Prof. Pedro Sander (CSE) and Prof. Ying Chau.

As with most SIGHT projects, this one has a long history and a long list of people to whom we owe our gratitude. First, our thanks to Helen Keller International (HKI) Indonesia, especially Dr. Satya, who really just started this project with us, and referred us to our current partner Gadjah Mada University. Our thanks also go to the student team that started this project, Felicia Agatha, Charlotte Chung, Wan Jia, Benjamin Lai; who were coached ably by our TA Sen Zhang.
