An Afternoon Visit to MBI by JC Students across Singapore
MBI hosted 19 students from various Junior Colleges across Singapore, taking them on an enthralling educational journey that ventures into the crossovers of biology, physics and engineering.
Lee Chin Hao
FYP Student, Chan Group
Titouan Etienne Poquillon
Research Associate, Beghin Group
Academic exchange at the Academia Sinica and National Cheng Kung University in Taiwan
Joe was invited to speak at the Institute of Physics (Academia Sinica) and the International Center for Wound Repair and Regeneration (NCKU). Great feedback on our ongoing work with exciting potential for future collaborations. Hope to be back soon!
Ong Huan Ting
Research Fellow, Young Group
Joe invited to speak at various conferences and universities in Apr and May
Joe was recently invited to speak at British Society for Cell Biology Annual Conference (UK), Hubrecht Institute (Netherlands), Paris Cite ́University (France), Collège de France (France), Reproductive Ageing Conference (USA) and MBI-Weizmann Institute joint symposium (Israel). It was also great catching up with old friends, mentors and collaborators!
