During the tour, our students engaged in a range of enriching activities:
- Guided lab tours at Codex and CUHK Biotechnology Lab
- Covid testing demonstrations by certified researchers
- Saliva DNA extraction and DNA structure model workshops
- DNA sequencing technology introduction and workshop
- Genetics masterclass delivered by the esteemed Dr. Allen
- Presentation sessions to Dr. Allen and Dr. Andy
A heartfelt thank you to the remarkable Codex team, especially Dr. Allen Chi-Shing Y., Dr. Aldrin Yim, Dr. Andy Tsang, Ms. Alisha C, and Ms. Chloe, for their dedication and expertise. We are also grateful to the CUHK Biotechnology research team, led by the exceptional Dr. Hebe, for their invaluable contributions.
We eagerly anticipate future collaborations to continue inspiring the next generation of young researchers. Together, we can ignite a passion for science and innovation in the minds of tomorrow’s leaders.”
