The Chinese University of Hong Kong
In year 2000 a team of plant scientists from four Hong Kong universities was awarded an Area of Excellence (AoE) grant to research on plant and agricultural biotechnology, with a field of dreams to strive for excellence at the international level and for the food security and nutritional well-being of people in Hong Kong, China and beyond.? The project has been supported for the last 10 years for its excellent performance, leading to the establishment of a national level State Key Lab of Agrobiotechnology in 2008.? In this lecture, I shall recount the inspiring stories of these scientists, now advancing in a field of hope to realize their dreams.
