I am a native of Taiwan and earned my PhD from Chang Gung University. I completed postdoctoral research at University of Utah between 2018 and 2022. My PhD research focused on the roles of gene function and signaling pathways in controlling nervous system formation. Both my PhD and postdoctoral research used zebrafish as the animal model. I began teaching at Utah Tech University in 2022.
I am enthusiastic about biotechnology education and strive to engage students to expand their knowledge by conducting research. My research utilizes molecular and genetic tools to approach the pathophysiological function of human disease-associated genes, and the integrated stress response (ISR) in rare neurodegenerative diseases. If you are passionate about biomedical research and would like to conduct undergraduate research, please don’t hesitate to contact me.
