Collaboration for research impact
協作研究創新天 The criminal mind of sex offenders 洞悉性罪犯的犯罪心理
Are you happy? 你開心嗎？
From the Editor
In this issue of CityU Today we profile several CityU researchers, alumni and supporters who are involved in meaningful work. We meet four CityU scholars who have recently won funding for collaborations with other academics around the world. By sharing ideas they are making good progress in cancer research, big data, ecology, and memory and ageing. Our cover story tells the full story. Meanwhile, we learn more about the Italian missionary Giuseppe Castiglione who played such an important role in art history in China during the eighteenth century. An exciting new creative media exhibition organised by CityU and the National Palace Museum in Taipei is bringing his work to life in dramatic ways. And if forensic criminology whets your appetite, find out how one CityU academic is unearthing new insights into the mindset of criminals who perpetrate sex crimes. We also have a chat with alumnus Mr Hectar Pun, one of Hong Kong’s top barristers, and find out what makes people in the region happy. So happy reading!
本期《今日城大》介紹幾位城大研究人員、校友、支持者和他們饒 富意義的工作。其中四位城大教員新近獲得撥款，將與世界各地的 學者合作研究，有望在癌症研究、大數據、生態學、記憶及老化 等領域取得重大進展，本期封面專題對此會作詳述。 我們亦將介紹中國藝術史上的名畫家— 十八世紀意大利傳教士 郎世寧；城大與臺北的國立故宮博物院再度攜手合作，籌辦新媒 體藝術展，以互動方法展現他的傑作。 此外，我們將跟隨一位城大學者探究性侵罪犯的心理，滿足你對 偵緝犯罪學的好奇心；我們還採訪了城大校友、資深大律師潘熙 先生，並探討亞太區的開心指數。

Nanotechnology for biomimetic tumour In Hong Kong, 13,747 people died of cancerrelated illnesses in 2014, and this number is expected to rise in the coming years as the population continues to age. Our knowledge of the physiology of cancerous tumours is based mainly on in vitro experiments conducted on cultured cells, but a CityU team believes these models are inadequate. In 2D cultured cells, there are monolayers of homogenous cells (they are essentially the same size, containing the same genes) that do not mimic real tumours. Another currently used model is 3D cultured cells, but it lacks control of the physical and chemical environment and cannot simulate tissue complexities. The team also used animal models for testing, but it found that there are interspecies differences so that the accuracy of the result is affected. As a result, drugs that work in laboratories, and are approved for clinical trials, don’t necessarily

2000年代初又迎來另一挑戰，其時城大的內地生日益增多。葉先 生回憶：「內地學生與本地學生剛好相反，他們有時過分自信，不 知道天外有天、人外有人。」他和同事會給這些心高氣傲的學生出 點難題，並向他們講授較複雜的知識，因為他認為「只有謙虛，才 能學到更多。」 如今，已有數位城大校友在四大會計師事務所擔任合夥人，或在知 名公司擔任財務總監，城大會計學系亦因此聲譽日隆。 葉先生與會計師行業有緊密聯繫，這對學生頗有助益。他任香港會 計師公會個別功能委員會成員超過20年，其專業知識使他能夠幫助 學生了解將來從事會計業的實況。他坦言會計師的工作時間頗長， 不過報酬亦相當豐厚。 他強調：「當會計文員也沒關係，只要你認清現實，不要有『工作 了兩年還不能買房子』之類的抱怨。」 葉先生與會計界專業人士合作，透過師友計劃、全年不斷的研討會 及講座，使學生對會計業有充分認識，從而確立人生目標。
會計學大體而言是一門技術型學科。學生要逐步建立技術上的知 識，以應付註冊會計師資格的考試。然而葉先生的大部分教學活 動，卻在正規課程之外。
他說：「如果喜歡這份工作，便不會介意起初幾年的艱苦。以我自己 為例，有時亦要工作到夜深，但因為喜歡教書，倒也樂在其中。」
葉先生說：「學生的態度最為重要。」而這點也正是僱主的看法。 會計學系有一門「會計精英計劃」課程，有30至40名優秀學生修 讀，葉先生在第一堂課就告知學生僱主對他們有甚麼樣的期望，囑 咐他們要好好規劃人生。

The criminal mind of sex offenders By Dr Oliver Chan Heng-choon Assistant Professor, Department of Applied Social Sciences
文：應用社會科學系助理教授 陳慶泉博士
I began my doctoral studies in criminology at the University of South Florida with a full scholarship from a local foundation: the “International Association of Asian Crime Investigators and Chinese-American Education Foundation Scholarship.” Encouraged by my professor, Dr Kathleen Heide, I started to research the behaviour of sexual homicide offenders.
”What propels them to sexually murder their victims?” and “How do they commit the offense?” were two key questions I had in mind. My passion for this topic grew stronger as I studied the literature, and I began to realise that there was a lack of research findings in this area. By knowing more about the answers to these questions through research, I was able to suggest practical implications for investigative strategies in the area of suspect prioritisation (i.e., offender profiling).

Castiglione, also known by his Chinese name Lang Shining, was a native of Milan in Italy. He arrived in Beijing when he was 27 as a Jesuit missionary and worked for over 50 years as a painter in the court of the Qing emperors.
The inaugural exhibition showcased an exciting exchange between classical Chinese and early modern European art.

They were: “Explore Castiglione’s Painted Flora and Fauna”, “Everyone can paint ‘One Hundred Horses’ ”, and “Spectral Flowers”. This exhibition, which was one of the celebratory activities for the 90th anniversary of NPM, was recently awarded the Best of Show and Best New Media in WorldFest-Houston 2016. From November 2015 to January 2016, this exhibition was held in the Basilica of Santa Croce in Italy, Castiglione’s home country. “Explore Castiglione’s Painted Flora and Fauna” from CityU was one of the exhibits.

Among the featured exhibits were 28 large facsimiles of Castiglione’s original works such as “One Hundred Horses”, “Immortal Blossoms in an Everlasting Spring”, “Gathering of Auspicious Signs”, and “Golden Pheasants in Spring”. In addition, 13 new media art pieces were on display, nine of which were created specifically for this exhibition by Professor Jeffery Shaw’s team. They included “Interactive Folding Fan”, “Discover the Painting in Castiglione’s Drawing”, “Interactive ‘One Hundred Horses’ Scroll”, “Another Kind of Chess Game”, “Copperplate Engravings with Sound Effects”, “Reflections of the Peacock”, and three other pieces that had been exhibited in NPM earlier. These new media art pieces presented Castiglione’s works in new and interesting ways, and offered a new and non-traditional perspective that encouraged viewers to interact with Castiglione’s paintings, and at the same time created a spectacular multi-sensory, viewing experience. In conjunction with this new media art exhibition, CityU organised an accompanying exhibition titled “Castiglione in Context” in which viewers could better understand the academic and cultural background to

今年的報告顯示，香港市民最不滿的是住 房狀況，其次是政治及社會狀況和環境狀 況。黃教授表示，香港市民面臨公營住房 短缺、私人住宅樓價高企的困境，而香港 政府的房屋政策未能紓緩房屋問題，市民 自然對住房狀況不滿。另外，近期政治民 生議題的爭論不斷，例如：港大校委會風 波、全民退休保障方案、2014年版權（修 訂）條例草案（即網絡廿三條）等，令社 會分化愈趨明顯，市民對政府愈加不滿。 環境方面，香港市民認為空氣質素持續惡 化，會對健康構成威脅。香港市民對上述 三項生活質素的滿意度評分都低於5分，與 以上因素有關。
黃教授解釋，比較三地市民，日本人對住 房、政治及社會兩項的生活質素最為滿 意，原因在於日本政府對低收入人士提 供住房支援；而且相對於日本人的收入， 現時當地房價並非高不可攀；加上日本政 府近年在政治、社會和經濟方面的努力， 對國家穩定發揮一定作用，故日本人對住 房和政治及社會兩方面相對滿意。雖然研 究結果顯示日本的娛樂消閒滿意度較韓國 低，但亦有7.78分之高。黃教授認為，這 是因為日本大阪的娛樂消閒設施充足，有 主題樂園和購物街等，因此日本人對娛樂 消閒的滿意度在六項之中得分最高。

Resonance between local and non-local students By Yusuf Rafique Department of Systems Engineering and Engineering Management 文：Yusuf Rafique 系統工程及工程管理學系
Exchange means interaction. When I came from India to study at CityU, I wanted not only to assimilate into the local community but also to introduce Indian culture to Hong Kong. I wanted to try and build a congenial atmosphere on campus that would promote a world of universal harmony. When I first came to Hong Kong three years ago, I was faced with numerous predicaments. The most difficult issue for me was food. As a Muslim, I do not eat pork or meat that hasn’t been slaughtered in accordance with Islamic law. As I was an outsider in Hong Kong in my first semester, my most frequent meal was the vegetarian sandwiches at CityU’s canteens. Fortunately, my fellow students and hall mates from different countries introduced me to restaurants in Sham Shui Po and Tsim Sha Tsui that offer food for Muslims. Hong Kong has now become my second hometown. I believe that non-local students are often filled with anxiety and need help with everyday activities when they first come to Hong Kong. To help them out, I took the initiative to launch the Resonance Project in February 2015 where we worked together with students from Bangladesh, India, Iraq and South Korea. We even had a few local students in our committee to get an all-round perspective. The multicultural activities that we have organised for all students have helped to foster friendships between local and non-local students. Resonance comprises six committees, with 80 members from nearly 10 countries and regions. Yusuf (centre) and his fellow students Yusuf（中）及他的同學

共鳴互動風行校園
要融合本地和外來學生並不容易，文化差異是一大阻礙。有時候， 不同背景的同學需要時間消化對方提出的意見，因為對某些人來說 是理所當然的事情，其他人未必理解、贊同。
交流是互動的。我由印度來城大升學，除了要融入香港的生 活，也想將印度的文化帶來香港，在校園建立融洽包容的氛 圍，宣揚世界大同的精神。 三年前剛到香港時，覺得最難的是「搵食」！作為穆斯林，除了不 吃豬肉外，非誦經而宰殺的動物亦不會進食。第一個學期時人生路 不熟，只能與學校飯堂的蔬菜三文治作伴。幸而後來得到不同國籍 的同學、宿友幫忙，帶我外出「覓食」，才知道深水埗和尖沙咀有 專為穆斯林而設的食肆，解決了食的難題。如今香港已是我第二個 家。

《婚姻訴訟條例》認為這位變性人不符合成 為「女人」的資格。 潘先生說：「我擔任城大法學特約教授，每 星期講一次課，與城大的法律系學生分享 經驗，主要探討公共法及人權。」他亦會向 學生提供有關事業發展的建議，介紹大律 師的工作，以及講述在法律範圍內爭取公 正與中立的重要。 獲委任為資深大律師，標誌潘先生已躋身 香港法律界精英之列。他表示：「成為資 深大律師後，我會處理一些更為複雜的案 件。」
他表示：「擔任學生會會長使我獲益良 多，例如培養了我的交際與溝通能力，因 為我要跟不同身分的人士交談，從大學管 理層到飯堂主管。我的組織能力亦獲得鍛 鍊，擔任會長其實是組織協調多於領導指 揮；會長一定要有良好的組織能力。」 儘管工作繁忙，潘先生仍然抽空參加城 大校友聯絡處、法律學院校友會及「城賢 匯」的活動。「城賢匯」是城大的一個校友 組織，由熱心的資深校友創立，旨在透過 他們的專業經驗及資源，促進城大發展和 服務社會。 他說：「我樂意為母校貢獻綿薄之力。」
潘先生今日的成就，與他在城大法律學院 接受的教育，以及他是城大本科生時擔任 學生會會長的經歷大有關係。
