Tell briefly about yourself.

Currently pursuing a Ph.D. in Food Chemistry in Taiwan, which I began in September 2021, under fully-funded scholarship from the Ministry of Education, Taiwan. I hold a Master’s degree in Biotechnology and have 2.4 years of industrial experience. My current research focuses on the origin-based characterization of food sample using an artificial electronic device known as an electronic nose, with data interpretation facilitated by machine learning methods to rampant food fraud and to enhance food quality & safety.
