Ariel Tan, NGS PhD year 4

After graduating with a Bachelor of Electrical Engineering (1 class Hons), Ariel graduated with a Bachelor of Science (physiology) in 2007 at the University of Western Australia. Her working experience encompasses both domains of engineering and science. She joined Midland Brick Boral (Australia) in 2006 to work as an engineering student in Power and Control Systems, and acquired further experience in 2007 as a Honors Student at the Optical and Biomedical Engineering Laboratory (UWA), working on the experimental validation of lateral resolution degradation of optical coherence tomography imaging of turbid media.

She finally joined NUS in 2007 as a NGS PhD student, now focusing on the Epigenetic Reversal of the Myofibroblast Phenotype to Target Peri-Implantation Fibrosis.
