Two of them received the first- class awards and the other, a second-class award. The first-class award projects were: ‘Integrative Research on Molecular Basis and Potential Targets for Gastric Cancer’ conducted by Prof. Yu Jun at the Department of Medicine and Therapeutics, and Prof. Joseph J.Y. Sung, Vice-Chancellor and Mok Hing Yiu Professor of Medicine; and ‘Concentration Phenomena in Nonlinear Elliptic Equations and Systems’ conducted by Prof. Wei Juncheng, Professor of Mathematics. The project receiving a second-class award was ‘Cholesterol-lowering and Cardiovascular Functional Foods and Nutraceuticals’ conducted by Prof. Chen Zhenyu of the School of Life Sciences and Prof. Huang Yu of the School of Biomedical Sciences. Research is a long and arduous task and researchers are no stranger to failures. The above-mentioned awards earned by CUHK researchers are not only the honour shared by the whole University community, but also serve as a stimulus to motivate all researchers of the University to forge ahead.
