Prof. Shafer Mary-Ann Shafer, M.D.

Prof. Mary-Ann Shafer, M.D. is Professor and Vice Chair of Paediatrics at the University of California, San Francisco (UCSF) and Associate Director of the Division of Adolescent Medicine. Prof. Shafer is frequently involved in international teaching programs and serves on national expert panels. Her areas of expertise include the common adolescent health problems, adolescent risk behaviours, reproductive health, management of STDs, eating disorders, transition care etc. She has established community based clinical and translational research, mentoring and professional development for trainees and fellows. She recently develops the first professional development course for ACGME fellows in the United States which is considered to a training model for the Fellows College.

Objectives of the Training Programme:
Adolescent Medicine is a new category of health care in Hong Kong. The current youth health care services are often disconnected. Formal training on Adolescent Medicine is also not well-developed. It would be extremely important and beneficial for us to have the Adele Hofmann Visiting Professor coming to Hong Kong to advise us on how to develop adolescent service and start adolescent training programs in our locality. We would like to have the expert advice from the Visiting Professor on the following areas:
  1. To advise the multidisciplinary health care providers and youth workers on the common adolescent health needs and the ways and means to develop adolescent health service in Hong Kong;
  2. To advocate the concept of interdisciplinary collaboration in providing adolescent health services in hospital and community settings;
  3. To advise on the development of training curriculum on Adolescent Medicine for pediatric trainees and fellows;
  4. To review and advise on the teaching curriculum on Adolescent Medicine for medical students and undergraduates;
  5. To advise on the approach to adolescent health research and on how to develop research agenda including areas of interest, collaboration, support and training with an international flavor.
