A Gift for Combating Lung Diseases The Lee Siu Lun and Ho Ting Sik Research Fund in Lung Health and Disease 李兆麟何廷錫胸肺研究基金 was established with a generous donation of HK$10 million from Mr Lee Siu-lun 李兆麟 and Mr Ho Ting-sik 何廷錫 to the Department of Medicine. The jointly named Research Fund embodies the admirable trust between the families of Mr Lee and Mr Ho in promoting lung health and in the fight against lung diseases.
Lung cancer is the leading cause of cancer deaths in Hong Kong. Through the detection of gene targets, lung cancer can be treated with molecular targeted therapy. Testing for lung cancer gene targets can be performed on cell-free tumour DNA found in the blood using different molecular biology methods.
The research project will aim to identify the different biomarkers of lung cancer and their changes, along with appropriate treatments. This will help refine the practice of personalised medicine, and will also enhance the understanding of the molecular pathology and clinical progression of lung cancer.
Dr David Lam 林志良 (BSc(BiomedSc) 1993, MBBS 1995, PhD 2007, MD 2014), Clinical Assistant Professor of the Department of Medicine and Principal Investigator of the Research Fund.

Project GrandMove to Promote Healthy AgeingWith generous support from the Simon K Y Lee Foundation, the GrandMove Project 耆力無窮, a structured exercise programme, was established with the aim of preventing and alleviating frailty among the elderly in Hong Kong.
Led by HKU Sau Po Centre on Ageing and in collaboration with the University’s Institute of Human Performance, the Department of Medicine and the School of Nursing, the project’s partnerships include the Institute of Active Ageing of Polytechnic University and nine NGOs. It is expected that this three-year project will train more than 70 “younger” elders to become coaches, and will benefit 400 pre-frail and frail elderly people. Following the project’s successful first year, an additional funding was supported by the Simon K Y Lee Foundation to expand the programme to promote exercising among elders in adult day care centres and in residential care homes.
While the frail or pre-frail state is common in Hong Kong elderly population, it is proven that effective intervention is possible simply by exercising.

The HKU Class of 1971 initiated a fundraising project at the time of their 40th anniversary to donate a work of art to HKU in celebration of the University’s Centenary in 2011. Through a long and extensive selection process by the University’s Working Group on Art and Decoration, and with the help from the Hong Kong Arts Centre, local artist Danny Lee’s work named “Universe 萬象” was chosen. It is now installed on the lawn outside the Fitness Centre at the Centennial Campus.
Silver Jubilee Class Giving TraditionThe Class of 1971 is a class of pioneers. Not only did they initiate this creative project for their 40th anniversary, they also started the unique Silver Jubilee reunion and giving tradition 20 years ago. Since that time their support of HKU has never stopped and now, at their 45th anniversary, they are still tirelessly thinking of new ideas to contribute to their alma mater and are planning ahead for their Golden Jubilee reunion in 2021.

“Universe 萬象 ” was unveiled on October 27, 2016 by the Class of 1971, together with President Peter Mathieson and Executive Vice-President Steve Cannon.

To promote global citizenship and competitiveness, the University commits to increase opportunities and
provide resources for students to gain exceptional learning experiences outside Hong Kong. The late
Dr Robert Tam Yik-fong 譚益芳 (BA 1930) and his younger sister, the late Ms Tam Wun-tsun 譚蘊真, firmly
believed in the value of education and had been staunch supporters of the University. The Tam Wun Tsun HKU Horizons Student Enrichment Award 譚蘊真才能拓展獎 was set up to support students’ participation
in outbound learning activities.
By 2019, 50% of all undergraduates will engage in at least one learning experience overseas
and one in Mainland China. The University aims to increase this overseas and Mainland China
experience for 100% of our students by 2022.

Inspiring Today Impacting TomorrowThe D. H.

Apart from the financial assistance that covers the Scholars’ full course of studies and enrichment expenses, a diversity of programmes will also be offered to foster the Scholars’ social awareness and engagement, such as social service exposure, mentorship and scholars network.
“This Scholarship is a motivation for me to soar,” said Yuki Ip 葉可淇 (MBBS Year 2) who aspires to practice humanitarian medicine.
Walking a 1,000 kilometers for love
Mr Sin Shui-fuk is one of the first Hongkongers to have completed the four Deserts Race Series around the world.
While Mr Sin Shui-fuk 冼水福 was suffering from Hepatitis B, he was taken good care by his wife and realised that women usually devote a lot of love and care towards their other halves, whilst they receive much less attention when they are sick. Therefore Mr Sin initiated a fundraising campaign and hopes his act may encourage men to show more caring towards their partners. By walking 1,000 kilometers within one year’s duration, he aims to raise funds for the Li Ka Shing Faculty of Medicine to support research into ways to optimise well-being of cancer patients.
Please support his cause! Walk to Care 徒步千里 踏出關愛
