Symposium – Biomedical Sciences : Building and Translating our Strengths

Biomedical Sciences has been identified as one of the 5 Major Areas for focused research investment in the CUHK Strategic Plan 2006, with a view to achieving synergy across the various disciplines of Biomedical Sciences.
 
The Investigators' Meeting has proven to be an excellent platform for principal investigators within the University's Major Area of Biomedical Sciences to share their experience in biomedical research, as well as for the wider University community to learn about recent research developments in this Major Area.
