✨ Yesterday we kicked off the first Conversations & Connections (C&C) seminar of the new academic year! ✨

We were delighted to welcome Dr Jian Yang, Principal Lecturer at the School of Biomedical Sciences @hkusbms and Coordinator of the HKU Body Donation Programme, and Dr Albert Ng, Senior Medical & Health Officer at the Department of Health and a #HKUMed alumnus, as our guest speakers. The session was moderated by Dr Nicolette Ray.

Through the discussion, we gained valuable insights into the current situation of organ and body donation in Hong Kong, the factors that affect willingness to participate, effective communication strategies, and answers to common questions surrounding donation. It was a meaningful conversation on life and death—one of the core themes of the Medical Humanities programme. We also learned more about how the Body Donation Programme supports #MBBS teaching and heard MBBS students share their heartfelt appreciation for the Great Body Teachers.

With students now back on campus for the second semester, we’ve reimagined a medical student’s life and HKUMed career with a little help from some AI tools. Do you recognise some of the faces who guide our aspiring doctor in this anime-style adventure?

[NeurIPS Conference @NeurIPSConf]

NeurIPS acknowledges that the cultural generalization made by the keynote speaker today reinforces implicit biases by making generalisations about Chinese scholars. This is not what NeurIPS stands for. NeurIPS is dedicated to being a safe space for all of us. We want to address the comment made during the invited talk this afternoon, as it is something that NeurIPS does not condone and it doesn't align with our code of conduct. We are addressing this issue with the speaker directly.
NeurIPS is dedicated to being a diverse and inclusive place where everyone is treated equally.

@GoldenJoysticks Who is too scared to even nominate Balck Myth for the game of the year? Is this still people’s choice award by not allowing people to vote?

Beyond a means to relax or socialise with friends, video games have been shown to help surgeons develop vital skills.

We invited two HKUMed teachers and two medical students to our Techmezz to challenge their gaming ability and their anatomy knowledge.

Here’s part one:
