The course combines music and health technology. For example it focuses on activities such as collecting the sound of babies' emotional crying, or playing music based on the results of machine learning which is able to soothe and comfort babies. The overall emotional and sensory therapy base on the physical and psychological status of patients. Ultrasound has been widely used for diagnostic imaging for over 70 years due to its great penetrability and safety. Then a new approach was introduced- sonogenetics. This revolutionary new technology could serve different medical purposes by accurately controlling cell physiology by using ultrasonic waves. It was expected to expand the vast market of ultrasonic technologies. After all, sonogenetics enables us to use ultrasound to precisely control cell activities for various therapeutic purposes and to bring significant impact to global ultrasound market in the near future. A site visit to Huijia Health Life Technology allows students experience the smart monitoring and care system developed by the company using non-invasive optical fiber physiological monitoring technology. This design prevents any harm to human health because no electromagnetic wave is involved in the process. As infants and the elderly may feel uncomfortable due to wearing the monitoring devices, this technology does not require wearing them at all. During the course, students can learn from researchers, physicians and industrial R&D researchers specialized in developing healthcare products based on human comfort, convenience, safety, etc. Holistic person-centered health care practice is a principle of patient treatment.
