2022 Update
As of January 2022 I've been based in Oxford University working as a research laboratory technician at the Centre for Neural Circuits and Behaviour (CNCB). Currently, I use molecular, genetic, behavioural and anatomical approaches in the model organism Drosophila (fruit fly) to support the research projects of the Goodwin Group, aiming to elucidate the neural circuits and mechanisms of sex-specific behaviours.
Despite the limitations of the COVID-19 pandemic, my course and professors at Warwick still effectively taught me the scientific thinking and methods that form the foundation of my work now. I've also had many opportunities to pursue my academic and extracurricular passions, from lab work to outreach volunteering to the arts. It is without a doubt that these wonderful experiences at Warwick were made possible for me thanks to the support of the Singapore Scholarship and its Trustees!
