About Us
The Hong Kong Hub of Paediatric Excellence (HOPE) is a leading research institute focused on advancing the health and well-being of children. Established in 2018 by the Chinese University of Hong Kong (CUHK), HOPE brings together a diverse team of doctors, researchers, and scientists that are passionate and committed to advancing paediatric health through innovation and compassion.
At HOPE, our work goes beyond the lab. We are leaders of translational medicine for rare and common diseases affecting children, closing the gap between research and real-world application to ensure that our discoveries lead to tangible improvements in the lives of children and their families. Whether it’s developing new treatments, advocating for children’s health, or providing education to communities, our goal is to create a brighter, healthier future for every child.
With a strong foundation in collaboration and research, HOPE is committed to addressing the most pressing health challenges faced by children today. We believe that through our work, we can bring hope and opportunities to children, supporting their growth with the strength and resilience they need for the rest of their lives, without fear of unknown health challenges.
