On 7 May, two CUHK PhD students, Yang Min and Zhang Caicai, received the 2012–13 awards under the Research Grants Council (RGC)-Fulbright Hong Kong Scholar Programme at the US Consulate. The programme is supported by a generous grant from the RGC, the US Consulate General in Hong Kong, and the Philomanthia Foundation. Officiating at the ceremony were Prof. Ronald T. Chin, chairman of RGC; and Mr. Stephen M. Young, US Consul General.

Yang Min is a PhD candidate in sociology. She will be affiliated with Harvard University where she will research on the social and cultural trauma associated with the Great Leap Famine, with reference to how survivors recalled and reconstructed memories of the famine. Zhang Caicai is a PhD candidate in linguistics. She will go to the Haskins Laboratories of Yale University to study the neural activity underlying talker normalization in lexical tone perception.
