I
am a member of the W.V.T Rusch Engineering
Honors Program, Thematic Option honors
program, and the Freshman Science Honors
program at USC. I worked as a lab assistant
in a molecular biology lab and a neuroscience
lab in my freshman year and learnt a lot
about lab and research techniques. I enjoy
working on research projects which stimulate
my intellect and interest. I worked as
a research assistant in Dr. Ying’s lab
at the Health Sciences Campus. We worked
on mouse and human embryonic stem cells
and tried to understand the differentiation
and self-renewal capacity of pluripotent
stem cells. My pre-professional emphasis
is pre-medicine. I aim to be a neurosurgeon
and be affiliated with W.H.O. and work
in nations which do not get sufficient
cheap, medical help. My hobbies include
playing volleyball, oil-painting, watching
movies, reading suspense novels, discussing
about current biological research, cars
and philosophy. I love sarcastic humor,
ice-cream, sudoku, USC football, Trojan
marching band and roller-coasters. |
