My Stories of Traditional Chinese Medicine
Following the tradition, Inter-Link this year held the Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) Day on 2nd April 2022. We invited Professor HUANG Bin, a Professor of Practice from the School of Chinese Medicine, HKBU, who has been engaged in teaching, clinical practice, and research in TCM for 30 years, to share his experience in TCM and the treatment for frequently-occurred diseases. He provided online consultation to the invited guests. Inter-Link members were honoured to provide Putonghua to English consecutive interpreting services during the event and the consultation sessions.
Comments from the speaker:
“I think the students’ interpretation was very helpful to me today, because the content of TCM itself is not easy to translate, and it would be very difficult for me to express myself clearly without their assistance in interpreting my lectures on TCM. So I am very satisfied and happy to have their help today. ” - - - Prof. Huang Bin, speaker of the sharing.
“Thank Janice for inviting me to participate in the TCM Interpreting Day to spread the culture of TCM and share the experience of treating diseases. Subjects relating toTCM are really not easy to translate and gave the students a lot of challenges today, but fortunately, they did well. They deserve some praise! - - - Prof. Huang Bin, speaker of the sharing.
