Professor Hou Pao-chang held the Chair of Pathology between 1948 to 1960. He was previously a professor at universities in mainland China and very well-respected both within China and overseas.
During his headship, a new pathology building was erected at the Queen Mary Hospital in 1958, integrating teaching, research and clinical services. Professor Hou's main research area was hepatobiliary disease. He made a seminal discovery linking the infection of liver fluke (Clonorchis sinensis) with the development of bile duct carcinoma.
