Biodata

Jun Yen is currently pursuing his Bachelor of Science in Life Science in the National University of Singapore (NUS). Being highly driven by curiosity and interest on Life and Biology, he highly involves himself in the research field. A member of the Special Program in Science, he is currently undergoing a one year research project (UROPS) on the effect of CDDO-TFEA on Alzheimer induced mice under the guidance of Dr. Sashi Kesavapany.

He was part of the organizing committee for freshman orientation projects for Malaysian students and has no problem in working with strangers. As much as he enjoys his work, he is a strong believer in the importance of a good quality of life and enjoys indulging himself in social gatherings and relaxation. He holds to the quote:

"Life Is A Challenge - Meet It! Life Is A Song - Sing It! Life Is A Dream - Realize It! Life Is A Game - Play It! Life Is Love - Enjoy It!"- Sathya Sai Baba

Dear Junyen,

Why wasn't I invited to the Malaysian orientation? Hmmm...

I do think the phrase 'A member of the Special Program in Science in NUS" can be better put across. Firstly, the two 'in's are too close together. Probably an example that negates the need to two 'in's is 'A member of the Special Science Program in NUS.' Just a thought.

Hey Yu Ming

Thanks bro ! It DOES sound nicer, gonna take your advice for it. Thanks again ;)

Haha, I think the reason would be the committee never existed yet then. My year was the second year and we had publicity issues since we are not an official group in NUS, just a bunch of people gathering to form a committee to help young aspiring Malaysians :)

Good job, Junyen, this is clear and concise. I might just add another statement to elucidate what you've learned in your major.

I like your quote, man!
