Singapore
A PhD candidate in NUS Chemical Engineering. A driven and passionate individual who has been consistently mentioned by peers. My current research field is on the Metabolic Engineering of Escherichia coli for producing valuable chemicals. I am also exploring sequencing tools using the Oxford Nanopore Sequencing Technologies to analyse day to day molecular biology experiments. I believe in sustainability and have interest in energy and biotechnology sector. During my free time, I enjoy gardening. During undergraduate, I took up position in NUS Raffles Hall Green Committee and establish various garden themes to encourage and educate the residents about plants and environment. Please feel free to drop me a message if you have any queries.
