Experiences

HKUMed InnoHealth Cup event helper, 03/01/25, I assisted as an event helper for the HKUMed InnoHealth Cup, a poster competition showcasing innovative medical ideas by high school students. I particularly supported event logistics, facilitated participant engagement, and contributed to promoting creativity and innovation in the field of medicine., HKUMed Info Day Helper, 10/01/24, I worked full-day as an usher and SBMS programme advisor, when I spent most of my time along with programme co-directors Dr. Kotaka and Prof. Lai offering advice and sharing personal experiences to interested students and parents about the BBMS programme. I also answered numerous questions about the revamped BBMS programme, allowing visitors to gain better insights., HKUMed Student Ambassador, 10/01/24 - Present, I joined to become a student ambassador last October, and am looking forward to representing HKUMed in future volunteering services and talks in secondary schools, aside from the Infoday helper., HKUMed SBMS Peer Mentor, 08/01/24 - Present, I maintained close contacts with my mentees, especially during the examination period, to offer them tips to adapt to university life and perform better in examinations, as well as helping them understand the course-selection system in September. I also encouraged them to join events from different societies to diversify their u-life., SBMS Professor Shoutang Wang's lab summer internship, 06/01/24 - 08/31/24, During my summer internship, I mostly helped Professor Wang's PHD fellows in preparing mouse model brain slices for immunofluorescence staining and imaging. I investigated the roles played by glial cells, such as microglia and astrocyte, in the pathophysiology of neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer's by reading through review papers. I am more committed to concentrating on my particular interests in the field of neuroscience as a result of this rewarding summer internship experience, particularly finding ways to develop medications and treatments to cure neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer's., SBMS Singapore and HKSTP Experiential Field Trip, 03/01/24 - 04/30/24, During our five days in Singapore, we visited two local universities (NUS, NTU) and several Biomedical Sciences institutes. On our second day of touring, we went to several departments in ASTAR (Agency for Science, Technology, and Research) and looked at a range of biomedical scientific research projects, such as those pertaining to pharmacology, neuroscience, and cancer. In addition, we had a lecture on our nervous system by visiting the Anatomy Museum at the NUS. We also had a quick conversation with several medical students, who provided us with information on graduate programs and Biomedical-related career paths in Singapore., External-vice Chairperson of Biomedical Sciences Society, Medical Society, HKU, 12/01/23 - 12/31/24, As the External Vice-chairperson, I worked to promote a positive reputation of the Society, keeping regular contact with the School of Biomedical Sciences, the Medical Society's affiliated societies, and external societies. As the person in charge of our inaugural ceremony, for instance, we invited over 20 academic and administrative staff members from the School of Biomedical Sciences and 50 representatives from external societies to witness the official commencement of the term of office of our cabinet. My leadership and problem-solving skills were enhanced via this experience in planning external events for Society, useful for resolving conflicts and leading teams in the future., LKS Faculty of Medicine Generations Connect Project, 03/01/25, I Engaged in the Faculty of Medicine Generations Connect Project, conducting visits to elderly individuals. Fostered meaningful connections, assessed their health and social needs, and contributed to improving their overall well-being through compassionate interactions and support., Service Volunteer Helpers in HKU Health Committee Estate Services, 2024, I signed up earlier this year to assist with blood glucose checks as a helper for the Health Committee HKU's Un Chau Estate and Choi Hung Estate Services. Besides giving the patients blood glucose strip tests, I also gave them advice on how to monitor and lower their blood sugar levels, such as eating more low-GI meals and reminding themselves to get body checks more regularly. Through direct conversations with patients, I applied my knowledge to real-world problems and gained a deeper understanding of their true needs., Volunteer Helper in YMCA Tsuen Wan Centre, 2022, I assisted in several services run by the YMCA Tsuen Wan Centre as a student volunteer. The indoor fun day was the highlight, drawing in about ten to twenty lower-class families and disabled attendees. In addition to engaging in talks with disabled individuals, I also had the opportunity to play and interact with kids who have ADHD. The experience improved my ability to communicate with members of our society who are often overlooked and consolidated my commitment and determination to improve their quality of life through contributing to the healthcare system., Global Social Leaders Global Goals Competition, 2022, My team's goal was to address Hong Kong's over-reliance on plastic by encouraging students on campus to properly dispose of their plastic waste and raising public awareness on social media platforms like Instagram. We worked with the school to encourage environmentally-conscious behaviour among students and reduce the amount of non-recyclable plastic wastes on campus. We also organised Zoom talks to explain and discuss the plastic challenges that are present in Hong Kong and the globe. By exposing me to real-world societal challenges and solidifying my identity as a global citizen, competing in this competition helped me to broaden my horizons and sharpen my problem-solving skills., Jockey Club 'Multicultural Leaders of the world' X WEDO Global Foundation, 2021 - 2022, My group focused on methods to eliminate ethnic and gender inequality in Hong Kong in a brief report and short video. Working with non-local students helped me better grasp the cultural differences between Pakistan, India, and Hong Kong, enabling me to understand the core value of cultural diversity in our society. This experience not only equipped me with cultural intelligence, but also empowered my sense of social harmony and community involvement., Statistical Project Competition for Secondary School Students, 2021 - 2022, My group selected the topic 'Understanding Labour Force Statistics,' and we looked into how the labour force in Hong Kong is distributed by age, sex, and unemployment rate by year using tables and charts. We also emphasised and underlined the factors-such as COVID-19 and an ageing population-that contribute to Hong Kong's uneven labour force distribution. My ability to analyse data and statistics from multiple perspectives has improved a lot as a result of this research project, which is crucial for assessing experimental results in the field of biomedical sciences.
