Pioneering Research


The HKU Medical Faculty has always been at the forefront of medical research and the development of new clinical services that benefit mankind. Through the curiosity and persistence of our world-class researchers, we have made important contributions to the study and treatment of cancers and liver diseases. Our team has also made notable advances in tissue typing, spinal surgery, infectious diseases, in-vitro fertilisation, endocrinology and tobacco-related diseases.

Our remarkable history in pioneering research has benefited the health of the wider community, but it can only be sustained by continued research funding and support from that community.
