The symposium is co-organised annually by the School of Biomedical Sciences of The University of Hong Kong, the School of Life Sciences of The Chinese University of Hong Kong, and the Division of Life Science of The Hong Kong University of Science and Technology. The purpose of the Symposium is to foster inter-institutional connections among local postgraduate students and principal investigators from various biochemical, biological and life sciences research fields, thus facilitating the exchange of views and research ideas.

About 200 researchers and postgraduate students attended the Symposium, which included plenary lectures by three renowned scientists: Dr. Jinmiao Chen, Professor Young-Gyun Park and Professor Pui Lai Rachel Ee. The Symposium included over 45 poster presentations and six oral presentations by postgraduate students, eight of whom were awarded for their successful research deliberation and excellent presentation skills.
