The Inauguration Ceremony for the 5th Term of the HKUMAA 130 Mentorship Programme was held on 17 January 2026, bringing together over 130 mentors and mentees.
Professor Rosie Young, President of HKUMAA, opened the event with a warm welcome, followed by insights from Dr Libby Lee and Dr Kevin Lau, Co-Chairs of the Programme, who shared the Programme’s objectives, structure, and activities. Former mentees Dr Alex Lam (also a current mentor) and Dr Ivan Lo also shared their personal experiences and recommendations.
The ceremony concluded with a 45‑minute breakout session, giving mentors and mentees the chance to engage in meaningful small‑group conversations.
Established in 2017, the Programme facilitates knowledge exchange and fosters a professional network between young medical alumni and students with senior alumni. Now in its fifth cohort, the Programme has supported over 1,500 mentors and mentees to date.
