School of Biomedical Sciences
This 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 & Technology. The Symposium fostered inter-institutional connections among local postgraduate students and Principal Investigators from various biochemical, biological and life sciences research fields, facilitating the exchange of views and research ideas. Professor Yukihide Tomari, from the Institute for Quantitative Biosciences at The University of Tokyo, the plenary guest speaker, discussed how competition between nearby piRNA ping-pong shapes their production and ability to silence target transposons with the PG students. The students also had the opportunity to deliver poster and on-stage oral presentations in the symposium.
