I am a Year 3 student in Ngee Ann Polytechnic, currently pursuing a diploma in Molecular Biotechnology in the School of Life Sciences and Chemical Technology. Through an internship-linked final year project, I am given the opportunity to work in the lab of Prof. Guan Xue Li at Lee Kong Chian School Of Medicine. I am currently engaged in a project that deals with macrophages and infection by Staphylococcus aureus. Through my experience here, I am hoping to gain more knowledge and techniques in the science field to help me in my future career.
