As a biomedical science undergraduate, I possess a strong foundation in anatomy, physiology, microbiology, immunology, and molecular biology. My practical experience includes laboratory experimentation, data analysis, and the presentation of findings.   Driven by a passion for biomedical science, I am eager to learn from seasoned professionals and mentors. I am in search of an internship that will allow me to apply my knowledge and skills towards meaningful and pioneering research, while also broadening my industry experience and enhancing my professional growth. I am confident in my capacity to contribute significantly to any team and progress in my career as a biomedical scientist.

I am a Professor of Toxicology, Biochemistry and Cell Signaling at Université Paris Cité (former Université Paris Descartes). I have completed my PhD in molecular toxicology and a post-graduate year in Bethesda, MD. I am the head of a Master degrees in toxicology and ecotoxicology. My research is based on cellular and animal models and on three main axes: 1) the influence of persistent organic pollutants on breast tumorigenesis and metabolic disruption, 2) the contextual role of pollutants in the occurrence of chronic liver diseases including steatosis and fibrosis, 3) the effect of mixtures on the progression of neurodegenerative diseases. I am involved in the development of innovative pedagogy methods and technics in order to improve transmission, acquisition, memorization and utilization of scientific knowledge by our biomedical students. I used flipped classrooms, quizzes (at home and during courses) and virtual reality to interact and immerge with students in and outside the classroom. Indeed, I developed with pedagogic engineers, 1) Home-based 45’’ Quizzes to engage students in regular learning modes and 2) serious games on cell signaling and xenobiotic stress. Together, with Etienne Blanc, Caroline Chauvet and Frédéric Dardel, I wrote several French books of biochemistry and toxicology topics for undergraduate students. I collaborate with several national and international institutes and universities (CNAM Thierry KOSCIELNIAK, Université de Strasbourg Jean-Luc SOUCIET, National University of Singapore, Fun Man FUNG...) for the development of innovative methods in teaching.

I'm a PhD student currently studying aging with repurposed drugs. My model organism of interest is C. elegans.   I am deep-diving into topics of proteostasis, aging and drug repurposing.  Connect with me to explore more of these topics. 

Dr. Fun Man Fung is a trained Analytical Chemist. He earned his postgraduate degrees from NUS and Technische Universität München (TUM). As a passionate educator and aspiring change-maker, he has contributed articles for CNA Channel News Asia, The Straits Times, The Conversation, and the World Economic Forum. His research centers on STEAM Education, EdTech, Science of Learning, and 21st Century Skills. He co-edited two books on Chemistry Education: [1] 10 Things You Must Know About the International Chemistry Olympiad (World Scientific) and [2] Technology-Enabled Blended Learning Experiences for Chemistry Education and Outreach (Elsevier). In 2022, Fun Man was elected council member of the Singapore National Institute of Chemistry (SNIC), and he served on the IUPAC Committee on Chemistry Education since 2020. Since 2021, Fun Man served as a member of the Editorial Advisory Board at the Journal of Chemical Education, ACS Publications. He is the founding chair of the ACS International Chemical Sciences Chapter Singapore.
