【敬悼蕭永泰醫生】蕭永泰醫生，香港中文大學（中大）醫學院校友，於2019年9月29日辭世。中大醫學院對蕭醫生的離開深表哀悼，並向蕭醫生的家人致以深切慰問。

蕭醫生是傑出的外科醫生，多年來積極貢獻本地醫學界，當中尤對微創手術的發展建樹良多。

蕭醫生於1989年畢業於香港中文大學醫學院，在學時成績優異，屢獲殊榮，並於畢業試的專業考試中以總成績首名摘取「城市獅子會金章獎」。

蕭醫生一生以「做個好醫生」為目標。畢業後，他即投身杏林，以外科為終身事業，在業界德高望重，深受同業和社會各界的表彰及稱許，並於多個專業團體中擔任重要公職。

蕭醫生對母校關懷備至，多年來一直全心全力協助中大醫學院發展，給予很多高瞻遠足的意見，慷慨捐助，對加強舊生與醫學院之間的聯繫貢獻至深。他是中大醫學院舊生會的創會功臣，自舊生會成立至今一直擔任幹事，並於2011至2014年成為該會長。蕭醫生於出任會長期間，積極籌備醫科畢業生師友計劃，而計劃最終於2016年推行，為中大醫學院學生及新畢業醫生提供持續的支援。該計劃為醫科生提供一系列充實的輔導及網絡支持，讓他們從進入大學伊始(甚至進入迎新營之前)，以致隨後的每一個學習階段，都能得所需的幫助。

蕭醫生對醫學界、教育界，以致社會各階層均貢獻良多，於2018年獲頒中大榮譽院士銜， 是首位醫學院畢業生得此榮譽；亦是首屆香港中文大學傑出醫科校友獎（卓越成就）的得主。

中大醫學院院長陳家亮教授對蕭醫生的離開表達沉痛哀慟：「蕭醫生畢生貢獻醫學界，積極回饋母校，扶掖後進，不遺餘力。他一生以『做個好醫生』為目標，豎立典範；多年來對醫學院的關切及支持更是不能言喻。即使患病後他仍如常出席各項活動，以行動表達對醫學院、教職員、學生及校友最大的支持。他的離世不論對醫學界及大學等均為重大損失。我們將永遠懷念他在醫學上展現的專業、對病人的關愛、對學生的和藹親切，以及對醫學院和校友的無私支持。我謹代表醫學院上下向蕭醫生的家人致以最誠摯的慰問。」

【Mourning Dr SIU】With profound sadness, we announce the passing of Dr SIU Wing-tai on 29 September 2019. Dr Siu was a graduate of the Faculty of Medicine of The Chinese University of Hong Kong (CU Medicine) and was a distinguished surgeon who had contributed greatly to the development of minimally invasive surgical skills.

Dr Siu’s story as a brilliant medical practitioner began when he graduated from the medical faculty in 1989. Even as a medical student, he gained prominence by winning many awards and honours, including the City Lions Club Gold Medal Award for the best overall performance in professional examinations in his graduating year.

Dr Siu was known to his colleagues, patients and staff as a compassionate and caring physician. As he had always humbly said, he “just wanted to be a good doctor”.

Dr Siu served on many societies and associations, either as a board member or president. But his love for his alma mater is unparalleled. He wholeheartedly supported the Faculty development by offering invaluable advice and through generous donations.

He made significant contributions to strengthening the bonds between the alumni and Faculty. He was directly involved in the establishment of The Chinese University of Hong Kong Medical Alumni Association and was a Council Member of the Association since its foundation, and its President between 2011 and 2014. He was instrumental in establishing the Faculty’s signature Medical Alumni Buddy Programme in 2016. The programme is aimed at providing a mentoring and support network for medical students and young practitioners, as well as helping to cement the relationship between alumni and the Faculty. In 2018, he became the first winner of the CUHK Distinguished Medical Alumni Award for Global Achievement.

Dr Siu took extreme pride in his work as a surgeon and imparted whatever wisdom he could to his peers and younger doctors. His distinction as a surgeon brought him respect from his peers and the community and earned him numerous accolades.

In appreciation and recognition of his work, he was conferred Honorary Fellowship by The Chinese University of Hong Kong in 2018, becoming the first CUHK medical graduate to receive such an honour.

Professor Francis KL Chan, Dean of Medicine, expressed his great sorrow at the passing of Dr Siu. “Dr Siu is a highly respected person who has dedicated himself to caring patients, giving back to his alma mater, and shaping the future generations of medical students. He has indeed achieved his ambition as being ‘a good doctor’.” Even in his illness, he attended Faculty events as much as he could to show his full support to the staff, students and alumni. Dr Siu’s passing is a great loss to the medical profession, CUHK and society. He will be dearly missed by his peers, his patients, and all of us from the Faculty. He will always be remembered for his selfless devotion to serving the community, and for his unfailing support to the Faculty. On behalf of the teachers, students and alumni of CU Medicine, may I offer our deepest condolences to Dr Siu's family.”

蕭醫生集合了卓越醫術、君子丰采、無私前輩、良朋益友的品格，是專業人員的典範。

以前在中大讀書的日子，偶爾在聯合書院會碰到高錕教授與師母在散步。小小書生，遇到德高望重的諾貝爾獎得主，自是很興奮。我怕打擾教授，所以都沒有跟他拍照，只是打打招呼，不過同學和他拍照，他也會很高興。有時，我們對他微笑，他也會熱情地笑，如同小孩天真爛漫的笑容。也許人成長了，就很難再有如此單純的笑容。那時年少，總想，腦退化症，誠然是傷痛的事，也令教授無法享受得獎的快樂，但最起碼，他換回了另一種快樂，也是一點安慰。

我認識高錕教授不多，但我無法忘記他的笑容。感謝你的貢獻，願你帶著這笑容到更美的地方。

【敬悼中大前校長及光纖之父高錕教授】
中大第三任校長、工程學榮譽講座教授及榮譽博士及諾貝爾物理學獎得主高錕教授大紫荊勳賢於9月23日離世，享年84歲。中大對高教授離世深感哀痛，並向高教授的家人致以深切慰問。

高教授於1966年首度提出光導纖維在通訊上應用的基本原理，促成互聯網的出現。高教授於1970年出任中大新成立的電子學系（現稱電子工程學系）教授兼系主任，並為中大首位電子學講座教授；1985年獲頒授榮譽理學博士銜，1987年至1996年出任中大校長。高教授榮休後，一直擔任中大工程學榮譽講座教授。

中大校長段崇智教授表示：「高教授是出類拔萃的學者，也是高等教育界高瞻遠矚的領袖，他作為中大第三任校長，在任內積極推動中大整體發展，建立穩固基礎，為有才之士開拓發展空間，成就超卓。高教授於科研方面亦力求創新，矢志追求卓越，其於光纖方面的研究，促成互聯網發展，為人類通訊史寫下全新一頁。高教授的離世對中大及全球學術界均是重大損失。大學同人將銘記高教授對中大及全球的重大貢獻，我謹代表中大教職員、同學及校友向高教授的家人致以深切慰問。」詳情：bit.ly/2pt1Igm

【In Memory of Professor Sir Charles K. Kao, former Vice-Chancellor of CUHK and Father of Fibre Optics】
Professor Sir Charles K. Kao, the third Vice-Chancellor, Honorary Professor of Engineering, and Doctor of Science, honoris causa, of The Chinese University of Hong Kong (CUHK), laureate of the Nobel Prize in Physics and Great Bauhinia Medallist passed away on 23 September 2018, at the age of 84. CUHK is profoundly saddened and conveys its deepest condolences to his family.

Professor Kao developed the principles of fibre optics in 1966, eventually ushering in the age of the internet. Professor Kao joined CUHK in 1970 as Reader and Chair of the then new Department of Electronics (later renamed to Department of Electronic Engineering), and appointed as the first Professor of Electronics. He was conferred the degree of Doctor of Science, honoris causa, by CUHK in 1985. He was Vice-Chancellor of CUHK from 1987-1996. Upon his retirement, Professor Kao was appointed Honorary Professor of Engineering.

Professor Rocky S. Tuan, Vice-Chancellor and President of CUHK, said, “Professor Kao was a brilliant scholar and visionary leader in higher education. As the third Vice-Chancellor, he spearheaded the advancement of CUHK in its formative years, laying down a fertile ground for the growth of talents, and made remarkable achievements during his tenure. His impeccable striving for excellence in science and technology led to his groundbreaking accomplishments in the area of fibre optics, which brought forth the development of the internet and opened a new page in the history of telecommunications. Professor Kao’s passing is a great loss to CUHK, Hong Kong, and global academia. All of us at CUHK will remember his immense contributions to the University and to the world. I sincerely offer our deepest condolences to Professor Kao’s family on behalf of the teachers, students and alumni of CUHK.” Details: bit.ly/2xJFUB1
