AI for Social Good Platform
ElohaX is an AI-driven platform committed to harnessing AI for Social Good, with applications spanning health, environment, and energy.
Core Initiatives
- AI-driven Drug Discovery for human diseases, with a present focus on Alzheimer’s Disease (AD).
- Air Quality Detection Systems to support people with respiratory challenges.
- Research on Clean Energy Systems, advancing sustainable and inspiring futures through AI-driven innovation.
Present Focus
Our flagship initiative, DeepDrugX, is dedicated to accelerating the discovery of therapies for Alzheimer’s Disease. By combining AI-driven drug discovery with neurogenetic insights, we are tackling one of the most urgent challenges in global health: finding effective treatments for neurodegeneration.
Scientific Collaboration
We partner with one of the world’s leading expert, Professor David Rubinsztein (Cambridge Neurogenetics) on neurodegeneration, integrating cutting-edge genetic research with AI-powered drug discovery to ensure DeepDrugX is both scientifically rigorous and clinically impactful.
Advisory Leadership
Mrs. Ingrid Kwok serves as the Chair of the Advisory Board. Ingrid provides strategic guidance and governance, ensuring that our AD-focused innovations are embedded in a framework of sustainability and long-term social impact.
Academic Recognition
Our work has been honored with the prestigious National Academy of Medicine (NAM) Healthy Longevity Catalyst Awards (HLCA) on four occasions, making us the only team in Hong Kong to achieve this distinction. This recognition underscores our mark of excellence, innovation, and social relevance in bold interdisciplinary medical research.
Founding Vision
Prof. Victor Li (Founder) is MIT-trained, formerly holding chair professorships at USC and HKU in Information Engineering, currently Director of HKU-AI WiSe. His entrepreneurial strategy empowers global scaling, using DeepDrugX to accelerate drug discovery. Prof. Jacqueline Lam (Co-founder) is Co-Director of HKU-AI WiSe, currently holding visiting academic positions at Cambridge and MIT. She is good at winning prestigious research grants, and mobilizing top universities to foster interdisciplinary collaboration in energy, environment and health. She advocates the mandate to use AI only for Social Good, ensuring every initiative aligns with ethical and societal stewardship.
