Coordinated by the Office of Academic Links (China) of The Chinese University of Hong Kong (CUHK), an eight-member delegation led by Prof. Zhang Ronghua, Vice-President of Jinan University visited the School of Biomedical Sciences (SBS) on 27 May 2016.

During the visit, the delegation was arranged to have a short meeting with Prof. Fung Kwok-pui, Associate Director (Academic Administration) and Prof. Kenneth K.H. Lee, Managing Director of Core Laboratories and Chief of Stem Cell and Regeneration Thematic Program of the School. Shortly after the meeting, the visitors were guided to tour the Core Laboratories and the Animal Holding Core at Lo Kwee-Seong Integrated Biomedical Sciences Building, in order to know more about how our School managed laboratory equipment and overall planning of the core facilities.

Indeed, since the establishment of the Ministry of Education (MoE) Key Laboratory for Regenerative Medicine in 2007, our School has been in close partnership with Jinan University, and both institutions have frequent mutual visits and academic exchanges. (see previous exchange activities conducted in September and December 2010, early and end November 2011, April 2012, May and July, September and December 2013, and December 2015).
