Three local universities have signed collaborative agreements with the Chinese Medicine Hospital of Hong Kong
Hong Kong’s first traditional Chinese medicine hospital will start operating in December, with the city’s health chief expecting it to play a central role in the industry’s development regionally and nationally.
Secretary for Health Lo Chung-mau also said on Tuesday that he hoped the Chinese Medicine Hospital of Hong Kong would be a “bridgehead” for the sector’s march overseas.
The University of Hong Kong, the Chinese University of Hong Kong (CUHK) and Baptist University signed collaborative agreements with the hospital on Tuesday.
“I hope the three universities can leverage their connections with other Chinese medicine institutions to strengthen the hospital’s cooperation with mainland China and overseas,” Lo said.
