about us

My research interest focuses on non-communicable diseases(NCDs) led by diabetes, especially type 2 diabetes(T2D). As a registered medical technologist(MT), my primary focus is on laboratory approaches. Lab tests are crucial in clinical diagnosis, and the expenses for the tests are low. I also gained some skills in ImageJ, GraphPad Prism, and MRI, which could be utilized in medical lab disciplines. Other interests of mine are public health and preventive medicine.
