Bioengineering

Sam was a graduate student in the lab of bioengineering professor Hao Yuan Kueh where he studied the control processes underlying T-cell development. These fundamental mechanisms could be used in the future to engineer immune cells to fight against various types of cancer. He also built artificial intelligent systems that extract insights from movies of live cell interaction to advance the field of image analysis. Sam is currently pursuing a postdoc in California.
