Held alongside the 2026 World Science and Technology Development Forum, this parallel forum brings together leading scholars, device developers, and system integrators from across the global sensing community.
Over the course of the forum, participants will explore disruptive technologies including quantum sensing, biomimetic perception, multimodal fusion, and brain–computer interfaces. Through in-depth discussions on high-precision, low-power intelligent sensing, the forum will examine pathways to overcome industrial bottlenecks, anticipate future technology roadmaps, and advance ethical and global governance frameworks.
The forum aims to build a global collaboration network connecting foundational sensing, information processing, and industrial applications—laying the groundwork for the reliable and secure development of future industries.

Artificial Intelligence, Consciousness, and Mental Health
Aligning with global research frontiers and major national strategic needs, this study focuses on the paradigm transformation of brain science and psychiatry driven by artificial intelligence (AI). It systematically investigates key technologies including deep learning, neural network models, and multimodal data fusion, and achieves a series of breakthrough advances in the field of brain-computer interfaces.
Leveraging the technical strengths of AI in speech recognition, image processing, and natural language processing, the research further deepens the systematic understanding of brain structural functions, cognitive mechanisms, and emotional regulation principles. Through the in-depth integration of AI and brain-computer interface technologies as well as the efficient fusion of multimodal data, this study provides innovative technical approaches and research directions for the clinical diagnosis and treatment of mental disorders and the precision modulation of brain health., which is expected to drive transformative progress in mental health intervention.
Furthermore, this study systematically analyzes the potential psychological and social risks arising from the application of AI technologies in mental health scenarios, and proposes targeted prevention and control strategies for the mental and psychological risks that may arise during technology application.. It offers critical guidance for the interdisciplinary integration of brain science and artificial intelligence as well as the clinical translation of relevant research findings.
Professor Lu also serves as the principal investigator for the Basic Science Center Program and the Science Fund for Creative Research Groups of the National Natural Science Foundation of China. His long-term research focuses on the pathogenesis and intervention strategies of mental, psychological and sleep disorders. He has proposed a new model for intervening in pathological memory and identified novel targets for rapid antidepressant action. He has published more than 600 SCI papers in journals including Science, The Lancet, The Lancet Public Health, The Lancet Psychiatry, and JAMA Psychiatry. His honors include the National Award for Excellence in Innovation, Outstanding Figure in the Overseas Chinese Community, Tan Jiazhen Life Science Achievement Award, Ho Leung Ho Lee Foundation Prize for Scientific and Technological Progress, First-Class Award in Natural Science, Higher Education Outstanding Scientific Research Output Awards, Ministry of Education, First Prize of the Chinese Medical Science and Technology Award, and Second Prize of the National Natural Science Award.
