The 1st Hong Kong-Nordic Research Network zoom meeting, held on 16-17 June 2021, was a success. There were over 20 talks and 200 plus participants, with intensive discussions and network building. We thank Profs. W.Y. Chan, Andrew Chan, Stephen K.W. TSUI, and all the organizational committee for their big efforts. A summary email by Prof. Andrew M. Chan, Director of the School of Biomedical Sciences, CUHK, is shown below. We look forward to continue this meeting annually.

Dear all,

The SBS Virtual Research Day 2021 cum Nordic Symposium was successfully held on June 16-17, 2021.  It would not be so smooth without your excellent support, and your presence has undoubtedly helped to make it a memorable occasion.  I believe all the participants have enjoyed and inspired by this one-and-a-half-day event and will forge a closer, sustained and long-term partnership.

Taking this opportunity, I would like to thank members of the organizing committee, and all the staff and students who have contributed to this event. Your dedication is highly appreciated.
