Two King’s College London alumni recognised in Study UK Alumni Awards 2025

Two King’s College London (KCL) alumni have been recognised in this year’s Study UK Alumni Awards.

The annual awards, which aim to celebrate the impactful influence of international graduates from UK universities, received over 1,300 applications from over 100 countries.

Two of the 28 finalists were KCL alumni, with one of them being announced as a global winner, KCL reports.

Enchia Tsai, who recently completed a masters in psychology and neuroscience at King’s, was named the global winner in the business and innovation category.

Since graduating, Enchia has co-founded Bended Biomedical, a biotechnology startup focusing on psychobiotics, which are a natural intervention that targets the gut-brain axis.

The goal of this project is to support individuals with neurological or mental-health challenges, including those who are neurodivergent.

She also sits on the board for Taipei Women’s Rescue Foundation, an organisation that advocates for gender equity and aims to support survivors of domestic and online sexual violence.

Her prize includes an invitation to visit the UK and come back to London in early 2026 for professional networking and further collaborations with experts in the field as well as other winners.

The second KCL alumni to be recognised was Dr. M Tasdik Hasan, who was selected as a global finalist in the science and sustainability category this year.

Tasdik graduated in 2018 with an msc in global mental health. His work largely explores the mental health needs of underserved communities including refugees, people with disabilities such as the deaf community and more.

Since graduation, he has published over 110 peer-reviewed papers and led multiple funded research projects.

In awarding him finalist status, the Study UK team recognised his immense and continued impact in the field of science and sustainability.
