Professor Dennis Lo is the Li Ka Shing Professor of Medicine of The Chinese University of Hong Kong (CUHK). His research interests focus on the biology and diagnostic applications of cell-free nucleic acids in plasma. In particular, he discovered the presence of cell-free fetal DNA in maternal plasma in 1997 and has since then been pioneering non-invasive prenatal diagnosis using this technology. This technology has been adopted globally and has created a paradigm in prenatal medicine. He has also made many innovations using circulating nucleic acids for cancer detection, including the screening of early stage nasopharyngeal cancer.盧煜明教授現任香港中文大學醫學院李嘉誠醫學講座教授。盧教授的重點研究 集中於血漿內游離 DNA 的生物學及診斷應用。於 1997 年，盧教授成為第一位科學家發表有關於孕婦血漿內發現胎兒游離 DNA 之研究，自此他一直處於這個嶄新研究領域的最前線。有關技術已被全球廣泛應用，並成為了產前胎兒醫學的範例。盧教授亦利用血漿游離核酸就癌症檢測作出了開創性的貢獻，特別是對於鼻咽癌的早期發現和監察有重大裨益。

[expand title= "Large-scale Models build new Foundation of AI
" trigclass="arrowright"]
Large-scale Pretrained Models (PLMs) have become the new paradigm for Artificial Intelligence (AI). In Natural language processing (NLP), PLMs with hundreds of billions parameters such as GPT-3 have demonstrated strong performances on natural language understanding and generation with few-shot in-context learning. In this work, we present our practice on training large-scale autoregressive language models named PanGu-α, with up to 200 billion parameters. PanGu-α is developed under the MindSpore and trained on a cluster of 2048 Ascend 910 AI processors. The training parallelism strategy is implemented based on MindSpore Auto-parallel, which composes five parallelism dimensions to scale the training task to 2048 processors efficiently, including data parallelism, op-level model parallelism, pipeline model parallelism, optimizer model parallelism and rematerialization. To enhance the generalization ability of PanGu-α, we collect 1.1TB high-quality Chinese data from a wide range of domains to pretrain the model. We empirically test the generation ability of PanGu-α in various scenarios including text summarization, question answering, dialogue generation, etc. Moreover, we investigate the effect of model scales on the few-shot performances across a broad range of Chinese NLP tasks. The experimental results demonstrate the superior capabilities of PanGu-α in performing various tasks under few-shot or zero-shot settings [/expand]
