HKUMed is now ready to ramp up its growth. Expansion plans are consolidating and new partners are being secured, as fresh talent joins the Faculty and the new 37-member leadership team settles in. ‘With their depth and breadth of expertise and immense enthusiasm, I am extremely confident that my team has the capabilities and competencies needed to take forward the development of the Faculty on all fronts, and deepen our engagement and collaborations with various stakeholders and the community,’ remarked Dean Lau. ‘They are also in a strong position to advance the Faculty’s central theme of interdisciplinary collaboration. Already, they are communicating and interacting closely with each other to maximise the synergistic benefits of partnership and teamwork on our common goals, driving the Faculty to greater heights.’ Those heights are also closely intertwined with the future development of medical and healthcare services of Hong Kong and the GBA. ‘We are very eager to boost up research and clinical collaborations with the HKU-Shenzhen Hospital and other hospitals in the GBA, and participate in the proposed development of the Northern Metropolis, which will open new horizons for future development of medicine and Hong Kong,’ he said. FEATURE READY TO GO ‘I am extremely confident that my team has the capabilities and competencies needed to take forward the development of the Faculty on all fronts.’ Professor Chak-sing Lau 20
