Terence Tsui

Biography

Terence Tsui spent his first 18 years in Hong Kong and studied in St. Joseph's College. He then received the Jardine Scholarship to read Mathematics in Exeter College, University of Oxford. During his undergraduate years, he discovers his passion in the theory of probability, captivated by its elegance and application to various fields. In particular, he is interested in randomness occurring in biological systems. Apart from mathematics, Terence is deeply passionate in addressing educational issues. He believes that every individual deserves quality education, and co-founded Project Access Hong Kong to increase access to overseas study for under-resourced students in his city. An avid listener of audio-books and a frequent traveller, Terence aspires to collect and live out stories to be told to future generations.
