LATEST PROJECTS
Project | 01 Promoting nutrition program - China 21 day vegan kickstart
​
In the nutrition department of the Physicians Committee, I promote healthy living and vegan diets through Weibo, the Chinese social media similar to Facebook. I have helped our publication team to create educational literature in Chinese, including Vegetarian Starter Kit, Diet and Diabetes: Recipes for Success, and Healthy Eating for Life: Food Choices for Cancer Prevention and Survival.
Project | 02 Improving medical research by using alternatives to animal models
​
In the research department of the Physicians Committee, I promote alternatives to animal research by reviewing animal models in medical research fields -- including diabetes, obesity, and cardiovascular disease -- and by working with decision-makers and the press. One example is that I was the leader campaign that stopped a cruel experiment planned by Taiwanese government to inject rabies virus into beagle puppies. I worked with local legislators and was intereviewed by major press in Taiwan.
I organized a workshop in major conference for refocusing medical research on human over animal models, and authored a scientific paper (published by Nature) on diabetes research and a policy statement on alcohol research for the American Public Health Association. New York Times also published my opinion on improving gender equity in medical research.
Project | 03 Teaching science by inquiry and constructive learning
​
I have numerous teaching experiences in university, college and high schools. As a PhD in science education, teaching students by science inquiry and guide them to learn in a collaborative and constructive environment is my expertise.
