      During my undergraduate I was studying pharmacy. This is a subject telling science and human health, and my major courses are all concerning chemistry and drug design. Since then, I have got to know science and try to figure out how the magical world works. What’s the real composition of drugs? How does drugs work in human being bodies? How to design drugs specifically for cancer diseases? These are all basic questions I have to think over and over. I still remember once our tutors took us to climb the Lushan Mountain in China, picking up and recognising a variety of herbs and making herbarium. That was really fantastic!

      Moreover, I even got involved in lab research with some awesome scientists, which led me into real science and made me quite happy. Making things with my own two hands is alway encouraging! To sum up, this is how I got into science.
