About 60 alumni from the Division of Life Science (LIFS) and the former Department of Biochemistry / Department of Biology ‒ BSc Biochemistry (BICH), BSc Biology (BIOL), BSc Biochemistry & Cell Biology (BCB), BSc Biological Science (BISC), BSc Biotechnology (BIOT), and BSc Biotechnology & Business (BIBU) ‒ returned to the campus on Saturday 16th March 2024 to catch up with old friends, meet new ones, reconnect with professors, and learn about the latest developments at the Division.
There was a cocktail reception before the buffet lunch. To kick off the lunch, Prof. Robert KO (Acting Division Head) and Prof. Yung Hou WONG (Dean of Science and Chair Professor of LIFS) delivered their welcome messages, followed by a toasting from the LIFS faculty members. Mr. Michael CHOW (President of the Life Science Alumni Association, LSAA) also gave a brief note on LSAA and shared their past alumni events.
The Homecoming was a happy reunion for all and received very positive feedback. Many alumni expressed their interest in attending forthcoming get-togethers.
It was wonderful to see our alumni again since the last reunion in 2019 and that they feel a strong connection to the Division. We look forward to building stronger ties with our alumni and collaborating with them along our journey of excellence!
