My name is Nathalie Cheung Kah Yan, currently pursuing a BEng in Biochemical Engineering at University College London. My educational background includes achieving top A-Level grades at Sherborne Girls in Dorset, UK, and excelling in IGCSE subjects at South Island International School in Hong Kong. I gained a strong foundation in bioprocessing, molecular biology, and mathematical modelling during my undergraduate studies at UCL. My coursework included extensive laboratory work where I was able to hone my skills in techniques such as PCR and protein purification. In addition, I participated in a research project designing and investigating the optimal parameters of a bioreactor to maximise vaccine production for Tuberculosis in Uganda. This piqued my interest in applying engineering principles to solve real-world problems. Furthermore, this experience has enhanced my technical skills and taught me the importance of teamwork, adaptability and effective communication in a research environment.
