My name is Jung-Chen Lin, and I come from Kaohsiung. I’m an undergraduate student of the Entomology Department of NCHU. I joined the lab because I’m interested in the interaction between insects and plants, and chemical ecology. Besides insects, I also like percussion music. I like to play badminton and assemble Lego in my free time.

My name is Ching-Cheng Wang. I'm an undergraduate student majoring in Entomology. In my spare time, I like to read or go hiking. I'm interested in natural enemies and expect to move in that direction in the future. I'm participating in research about looking for potential parasitoid wasps in Taiwan for pest control. 

Hello, my name is Yu-Cheng Tuan, and I am an undergraduate student in the Department of Entomology at NCHU. I'm eager to gain practical experience and enhance my experimental skills. My focus is on rearing natural enemies that can more efficiently and sustainably control agricultural pests. In my free time, I enjoy reading and daydreaming. 

Hello everyone, my name is Ya-Rou Wang, and I am an undergraduate student at NCHU. In my leisure time, I enjoy drawing and reading. My research is focused on microbe-mediated interactions to identify practical applications for microorganisms. I am also interested in exploring the intricate relationship between plants and insect herbivores.

Hello! I’m Waranya Ardburai, a PhD student in the Department of Entomology at Khon Kaen University, Thailand. I joined the lab through the IIPP program. In my project, I’m focused on biologically controlling Spodoptera frugiperda using botanical insecticides derived from plant extracts in Taiwan. I’m also practicing rearing caterpillars in our lab. I’m truly excited to be part of this team. I'm so happy to be joining our lab.   

Hi everyone, I joined the lab when I was 2-moths-old and enjoy coming here during weekdays. Even though I've reached a weight of 20kg, I love hugs and sitting on my companion's lap, and like to chew things that two-legged humans don't want me to.

Most importantly, I'm the one who keeps everyone happy!
