The field of biomedical research is an exciting and ever-expanding area to explore.

This year, the theme of the symposium is INNOVATION, which includes but not limited to the following topics:

  2. cancer immunology
  3. translational medicine research
  4. aging research
  5. infectious disease and therapy
  6. drug discovery
  7. other new technologies in biomedical science

Last year, we were grateful to have gathered over 400 participants and scholars from ten different regions. Particularly, we were pleasure to have Ada Yonath, Nobel Laureate in Chemistry 2009, and Douglas Lowy, the recipient of the 2017 Lasker-DeBakey Clinical Medical Research Award, presented at the symposium.

This year, we are very honoured that Aaron Ciechanover, Nobel Laureate in Chemistry 2004, George Fu GAO, Director-General of Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention are going to present at the symposium. In addition, some renowned scientists, include Erwei Song, President of Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hospital, National Yangzi River Scholar in China; Dennis LO, who is Fellow of the Royal Society and a Foreign Associate of the US National Academy of Sciences are also our speakers in 2019.
