On 6 March, the Research Office at Hong Kong Baptist University (HKBU) celebrated International Women’s Day with a “Research Mingle” event, featuring Professor Li Min, Executive Associate Dean of Chinese Medicine, alongside several distinguished female scholars.

Professor Li Min shared for the first time her personal experiences and insights on navigating multiple roles as a senior management executive, educator, scientist, and family pillar, highlighting the importance of effective time management, child education, and personal development. She introduced the concept of 5 Ps: Persistence, Patience, Perseverance, Passion and Practice, encouraging participants to adopt these qualities to break through challenges, nurture next generations, achieve academic excellence, cultivate their professional fields, and continuously improve themselves.  Professor Li also emphasised the need for researchers to strike a balance between their careers, families, and personal growth.

In his closing remarks, Professor Lyu Aiping, Vice President (Research & Development) and Acting Dean of Chinese Medicine, reiterated the University’s commitment to supporting female colleagues and fostering a more inclusive and balanced research environment.

On the occasion of International Women’s Day, the School extends its best wishes to all women, encouraging them to shine brilliantly in their chosen fields and create lasting legacies with women’s power.
