self-assessment

I am good at communicating with others and have an outgoing personality. I like sports and reading. I am a careful, patient and hands-on biology major with some laboratory experience, such as protein purification and cell culture. I like to explore new technologies and take the initiative to solve problems and hoping to combine biology and artificial intelligence to create more possibilities. Six years of academic and professional experience in the U.S., develop my strong adaptability and cross-cultural communication skills.
