The university's comprehensive infrastructure, including dedicated libraries, laboratories, and teaching hospitals, along with its unique college system and generous hostel policy, proved decisive factors in her choice. Her academic excellence was recognised with the prestigious Vice-Chancellor's Scholarship, ensuring her financial stability throughout her studies.

Academic Achievement and Research Excellence

Her academic journey has been marked by notable achievements, including the Charles K. Kao Scholarship, which supported her research exchange at Stanford University's Department of Otolaryngology. Most recently, she secured funding from the Hong Kong Science and Technology Parks Corporation's (HKSTP) Ideation programme to develop her final year project into a commercial product.

Global Exposure and Professional Development

Beyond classroom learning, Jarinyagon's professional experience includes valuable internships at both Stanford University and a Hong Kong biotech company. Her first full-time paid position as an R&D intern in Hong Kong's biotech sector provided crucial insights into industry operations and workplace dynamics in one of Asia's primary business hubs.

Future Impact in Healthcare Innovation

Looking ahead, Jarinyagon aims to leverage her CUHK education to make meaningful contributions to healthcare through innovation. Her involvement with HKSTP's Ideation programme exemplifies how CUHK prepares students to transform academic projects into practical healthcare solutions.
