For this reason, it is imperative to strengthen cancer research in Macao. UM boasts leading experts specialising in different aspects of cancer research. They include Prof Deng Chuxia, Prof Shen Hanming, Prof Wang San Ming, Prof Zheng Wenhua, Prof Edwin Cheung Chong Wing, Prof Di Lijun, Prof Shim Joong Sup, Prof Henry Kwok Hang Fai, Prof Yuan Zhen, Prof Liu Tzu‑Ming, Prof Chen Xin, Prof Chen Xiuping, Prof Leo Lee Tsz On, and Prof Dai Yunlu. UM’s cancer research team has already achieved multiple breakthroughs in the following areas: inhibiting breast cancer metastasis and recurrence, treating breast cancer with autophagy inhibitors, preventing cancer through large-scale populational genetic testing, treating ophthalmic tumours with artemisinin and its derivatives, discovering a new mechanism for prostate cancer treatment, combining hormone replacement therapy with chemotherapy for ovarian cancer treatment, applying genetic theory in colorectal cancer treatment, reducing drug resistance in lung cancer by developing new inhibitory antibodies, developing a novel multifunctional drug for tumour photodynamic therapy, improving precision medicine for cancer treatment by using the multiphoton microscopy system to observe the microenvironment of tumours, inhibiting ovarian cancer metastasis with nanotechnology, destroying cancer cells at high temperatures by using nanoparticles as drug carriers, enhancing the effectiveness of cancer immunotherapy with natural compounds of traditional Chinese medicine, inducing necroptosis of cancer cells with Chinese medicine, and creating a digital microfluidics system for cancer drug screening. Establishing an Interdisciplinary Research Platform UM is currently applying to the Ministry of Education to establish a cutting-edge research centre in the field of precision medicine for cancer treatment. FHS, FST, ICMS, and IAPME collaborate with one another to carry out interdisciplinary research in this field. The aim is to create an internationally leading centre for cancer immunology and precision medicine for cancer treatment in Macao and the Guangdong-Hong
