Dr Linda Zhong, Assistant Professor of the School of Chinese Medicine, has been admitted as a Fellow of the International Complementary and Integrative Medicine (CIM) Research Leadership Program in recognition of her excellence in the clinical study of Chinese medicine and integrative medicine. The programme was launched by the Australian Research Centre in Complementary and Integrative Medicine, which is part of the Faculty of Health at the University of Technology Sydney. 

 

Among the 40 applicants, less than ten were admitted to the programme and Dr Zhong is the only candidate from Hong Kong. The programme provides emerging CIM researchers with a unique opportunity to mix with other researchers from the discipline over the next five years. It also presents a chance to reflect and think about the bigger picture of CIM research and the challenges the discipline faces at the national and international level.
