PhD in Electrical Engineering and Computer Science, University of Michigan, Ann Arbor
Research Summary
I received dual bachelor degrees in electrical engineering and law from the National Taiwan University, Taipei in 2008 and my PhD in electrical and computer engineering at the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor in 2014. I continued to work at Ann Arbor as a research faculty in both the Electrical & Computer Engineering Department and Forbes Institute for Cancer Discovery. I am currently an assistant professor in the Department of Computational and Systems Biology and UPMC Hillman Cancer Center at the University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine. I am also affiliated with the Joint CMU-Pitt PhD Program in Computational Biology. I am the recipient of Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company (TSMC) Outstanding Student Research Award (2008), Orenstein PhD Fellowship (2009), Best Post-Doctoral Speaker Award in Microfluidics in Biomedical Sciences Training Program, UMich (2015), Emerging Forbes Scholar selected by Forbes Institute for Cancer Discovery (2017), and Hillman Early Career Fellow for Innovative Cancer Research (2021). My research focuses on high-throughput single-cell analysis, next generation sequencing (NGS) and machine learning for cancer precision medicine.
