A column article by Prof. Erwin HUANG, Adjunct Professor in the Division of Integrative Systems and Design (ISD), on the true innovation of Apple's first foldable phone, the iPhone Duo, argues that Apple’s success has always relied on reassembling existing technologies into intuitive user experiences rather than inventing hardware from scratch. He noted that iPhone Duo’s success hinges on whether Apple can seamlessly integrate dual-screen multitasking and cross-application AI personal agency into daily usage.

A column article by Prof. Erwin HUANG, Adjunct Professor in the Division of Integrative Systems and Design (ISD), on the market expectations and user experience challenges of Apple’s first foldable phone, the iPhone Duo analyzes whether the tech giant can once again turn an existing niche technology into a mainstream daily necessity under new CEO John Ternus.

Prof. Christine LOH, Chief Development Strategist in the Division of Environment and Sustainability (ENVR), stated that HK must take a long-term perspective on global shifts over the next 10 to 20 years, strategically planning the infrastructure and talent needed to prepare for future challenges.

The MUSICO arrived at Tiangong Space Station aboard the Tianzhou-10 cargo spacecraft. Prof. SU Hui, Chair Professor in the Department of Civil and Environmental Engineering, Department of Ocean Science, and Division of Environment and Sustainability (ENVR), who leads the MUSICO project, stated that HK's first astronaut Dr. LAI Ka-Ying operated a robotic arm to install MUSICO outside the Mengtian lab module of the Tiangong space station. With the camera designed to monitor greenhouse gas distributions from space, Prof. Su described it as an "eye” in the sky capable of capturing 1,000 pictures daily across 250,000 emission sources to help reduce emissions, with future applications planned for broader environmental pollutant tracking.

In an interview with CNN creator Matias GREZ, Prof. Stuart GIETEL-BASTEN, Professor in the Division of Public Policy (PPOL) and Division of Social Science, discussed how sperm racing events raise awareness about sperm health and male fertility. Prof. Gietel-Basten explained that male fertility is closely linked to factors like sperm motility, density and morphology.

A column article by Prof. Erwin HUANG, Adjunct Professor in the Division of Integrative Systems and Design (ISD), exploring how different user interfaces and AI tools shape human thought processes rather than merely speeding up productivity. He stressed that the essential skill in the AI era is not just achieving faster input speed or prompt mastery but developing a "strategic pause"—knowing when to let ideas expand via voice, converge via text, reorganize via visuals, and pause to evaluate whether a conclusion is truly well-formed.
