Instructor

Card image cap

Name : Dr. Jessica Ce Mun Tang
Dr. Tang has been joining the iGEM team as an instructor for nine years. Prior to joining iGEM, most of the members, especially those from life science department, are already familiar with her since their first year as she has been the course instructor for General Biology courses. She never puts on airs and has always treated us like more than a student of hers. Just like the lyrics, "Let this be our lesson in love. Let this be the way we remember us."

Card image cap

Name : Prof. King Lau Chow
He is currently the Director of Interdisciplinary Programs Office. His research work spans a broad spectrum of biological sciences, with many different interdisciplinary collaboration. He has been engaged in iGEM activities for the past 9 years and sees it a very effective way of vertically integrating education while training our critical thinking skills. When we're facing problems, he encourages us to explore by ourselves rather than directly telling us the solution.
