What brought you to UC Berkeley?
The great reputation in academics and friendly research environment.

What are you researching and what is the most surprising thing you've learned so far in your postdoc career?
My current research interest is developing the organ-on-a-chip platform for obesity-induced metabolic dysfunctions. I am surprising that people with different background could create a smooth combination of biology, physiology, and engineering in organ-chip research.

What do you enjoy doing outside of your work?
Outdoor activities including hiking, backpacking, camping, fishing, archery. Have summited Half Dome, Lassen Peak, Mt Whitney.
