Our Message to Students
In the Chen lab, we provide a friendly and cooperative environment for students and postdocs to explore in science. We believe that YOUNG GENERATION has great potential to create and advance our knowledge with proper supports and guides in scientific community. We want to empower our trainees with skills of reading, writing, presentation and communication in science. Our ultimate goal is to educate the YOUNG GENERATION to be great scientists in academia or industry, and we want to help you to reach your dream.
We celebrated Christmas and New year. Wish for the best to everyone in the lab!

Chun-Hao managed two panel discussions for career development. We want to deliver the message to our trainee: we care about you and hope you find passion and love in your life. 6 speakers from all over the world share their experience in academia and industry, respectively, to over 50 students and postdocs.

Olympics in NTU! Jen-Wei won the first place of filling tips contest. We also took our first lab photo with all members. Exciting to work in the lab again in the post-COVID19 era.

Online meeting is the new normal in the pandemic. Even in this difficult time, members are working hard at home and staying bonded.
|
Welcome party for Jia-Bin and celebrate our first paper publication on STAR Protocols. The Chen lab had great chats during BBQ.

Joint weiya with the Lee lab and the Cheng lab. Be grateful for the past, and looking forward to a brand new year (Ox year). In the last year, we set up new microscopes and the microinjector- a huge landmark for the lab. Stay tuned!

Friday afternoon, a hard-working student tried to imitate a blister (a type of mutant phenotypes) to show us what he saw under microscope. Good try! We immediately learned how to pick the mutant worms!
|
Sport day! After the midterm exam, we decided to refresh ourself by shaking our bodies. Playing Badminton and ping-pong with other labs were so fun. Chun-Hao was the worse player ever and he definitely need to learn how to play from other members.
