2018/1/26 FIRDI
In the early morning of Jan 26th, we hurried from Taipei to Hsinchu to visit Food Industry Research and Development Institute(FIRDI). Under the guidance of senior researchers in the institute, we came to know the importance of microorganisms in food industry and the institute’s dedication to preserving biological resources in the past 50 years.
More importantly, we discussed with three experts, research scientist Guey-Yuh Liou, senior research scientist Hing-Yuen Chan, and associated research scientist Li-Wen Yu, ideas and topics we generated last year in hopes of diminishing the obstacles we were faced with. The experts thought through the ideas with us and suggested possible problems and potential market demands of the topics. With the help of the experts, we acquired numerous inspirations and new directions.
We are thankful for the help from the experts in FIRDI and Dr. Chou Tzu-Ho, who led this visit to the institute. What we have learned will continue to foster our ideas and projects.
