新聞稿：恭賀高浩校友在腦神經研究取得重大成果
新聞稿
香港，二零一三年六月六日
香港中國婦女會中學校友高浩博士(2005/6S)進行的科研獲得重大成果。他通過老鼠實驗，發現當視覺神經開始接收和處理外界的資訊後，腦細胞會繼續發展而組織成有功能的網絡。研究有助了解新生嬰兒腦神經網絡的形成和運作，有關成果刊登於英國權威學術刊物《自然》(Nature)，香港中文大學昨日通知傳媒，多份報章今日均有報導。
高校友小四時自大陸移民香港，排除萬難學習英語，就讀母校時對數學及物理建立濃厚興趣。除了讀書外，他一向熱衷體育，尤其精於足球，曾任藍社社長及學生會藍社代表。2004年中學會考獲得7A2B佳績，次年循「拔尖」計劃入讀中大新亞書院醫學系。2008年，高校友以一級榮譽，完成一年制中大醫學科學理學士課程，旋即獲教授推薦進入倫敦大學學院(University College London)攻讀神經科學，研究期間取得突破性成果，去年以25歲之齡獲博士學位，亦為母校第廿二屆校友中，首位及迄今唯一獲博士學位者，並於同年母校畢業典禮，獲頒「傑出校友獎」，亦為該屆第四位獲獎的校友。
高博士年紀雖輕，但其研究成果已兩度刊登於《自然》，奠定了他在學術界的地位。舊生會謹向高校友致賀，並祝願他繼住開來，造福人群。

Our alumnus Dr. Owen KO (2005/6S) had significant achievements in brain development and his findings were published in the April issue of a prestigious British scientific journal Nature. Dr. KO’s finding suggests that external stimuli are the main factors affecting brain development. This finding would be vital in knowing more about the early stage of infant’s brain development.
Owen was an immigrant and entered HKCWCC in 1999. A keen soccer player, he was the Sapphire Captain during F.6. He obtained an amazing 7A2B result in his 2004 HKCEE, amid hard work and keen interest in science. Owen was admitted to the Medical School of CUHK in 2005, before he came first in his class and was recommended to study in University College London in 2008 for a doctoral degree. He was conferred doctorate last year at the age of 25, and was awarded Outstanding Alumni Scholarship in December 2012.
The Alumni Association congratulates Owen and wishes that he will endeavor to help mankind through his advanced scientific research! Well done Owen!
