Queen’s President and Vice-Chancellor Professor Sir Peter Gregson said: “The creation of a joint college with one of China’s top health sciences universities is based on a real and vibrant partnership. It will provide many opportunities and deliver real outcomes for society in China, in the UK and in Ireland.”
