TEAM BIO

Medicine is my core passion, but I enjoy learning various fields of science, including bioengineering. I struggle to identify myself in terms of "where I am from"; my DNA tells me I am Chinese, but my nationality is Malaysian. However, I was born and raised in Tokyo, Japan, and I go to an American school, but English is not my first language. Albeit my ambiguous origins, I can easily identify what I enjoy in life. I have played the violin for 14 years and piano for 3 years (I am 17 at the moment). I enjoy playing music as a way to escape from stresses (such as trying to explain people where I'm from). I enjoy being a part of this team's building project, contributing as a co-leader. I look forward to how this idea will expand as well as our maturation as people and as teammates.

I am 17 and have lived in Tokyo my whole life. I really like eating while watching TV! My role in the team mainly consists of doing research and scheduling communication.

I am 17, was born in New York, moved to Japan when I was 3, and went to local public school for 9 years and cosider myself very Japanese. I am an artist, interested in evolutionary biology and ecology, and love to play basketball.

I am 17 and am English, but, I have moved around 8 times and so consider my self very international. I love to sing and play the piano. I am thrilled to be apart of iGEM as I really enjoy applying sceintific knowledge from my AP's into real life research. I would like to pursue a career in pharmacological research; I'm interested in Immunolgy specifically. In IGEM my role is co-leader.
