Prof. Chan Wai-yee, Pro-Vice-Chancellor (Strategic Developments) of the Chinese University of Hong Kong (CUHK) cum Director of the School of Biomedical Sciences (SBS) was invited to give a speech at The 2018 Assembly of the Shenzhen Virtual University Park (SVUP) on 13 Nov 2018. He was also appointed as one of the experts of a municipal strategic research center of technology and innovation in Shenzhen (深圳市科技創新戰略研究中心) to provide scientific and professional advice on strategic development of innovation and technology in Shenzhen.

Including CUHK, SVUP has brought together 60 local and overseas prestigious universities and set up over 200 research and development centers in Shenzhen to nurture enterprises and talents of science and technology. We hope the closer connection between CUHK and SVUP will facilitate the innovative and technological development of biomedical sciences in Hong Kong and the Mainland, which will in turn lead to more research collaboration opportunities for our School members.
