Medical experts have stressed that Hong Kong’s next generation of healthcare professionals must combine clinical rigour with emotional resilience, an open-minded approach to Artificial Intelligence (AI) and the drive to transform the sector.The remarks came during a panel discussion on the first day of the inaugural Global Education Summit, co-organised by the South China Morning Post and HSBC Premier.“We always talk about people going north, going to Shenzhen … for medical services. But I would say that it’s a good thing for a future doctor. You’re going to be a doctor not just for 7 million people. You’re going to be a doctor for 18 million people,” Dr Chung Kin-lai, chief executive officer of CUHK Medical Centre, said on Saturday.
