Some say that laboratories are all alike, with a cold, controlled, and serene atmosphere, where researchers immerse themselves in repetitive and rigorous experiments every day. However, different laboratories have different styles and atmospheres, depending on the influential figure - the leading professor - who shapes the team and guides their comrades in the competitive and relentless world of scientific research, where every second counts and survival of the fittest prevails.

Dr Kwok Chun-kit is an associate professor in the Department of Chemistry at City University of Hong Kong. He is a young scientist who focuses on researching the relationship between RNA, gene regulation, and diseases such as cancer. In 2022, he was awarded the Excellent Young Scientists Fund (Hong Kong and Macau). While the professor leading the research is often referred to as the "boss" of the laboratory, Dr Kwok doesn't like this title. Although he has high expectations for his students, he doesn't consider himself a "strict master." In addition to imparting knowledge to his students, he feels his greatest responsibility is to seek research funding and ensure that his team can focus on their work without worries.

Dr Kwok graduated from the Department of Chemistry at the Chinese University of Hong Kong. He has had the opportunity to study and conduct research at several top universities in the United States and the United Kingdom. During his academic journey, he learned different scientific knowledge and mentoring skills from five distinguished professors. Inspired by his mentors, he has created a laboratory that is characterized by warmth, joy, and the nurturing of young research talents.
