"My passion is to embrace new technology in laboratory techniques and applying it to novel tests development. This helps to increase accuracy in the prevention, treatment and diagnosis of diseases. I once had the opportunity to learn a new technology for heavy metal analysis. Heavy metal analysis is not only important for clinical diagnosis of toxicity, but also in the screening of workers in many at-risk industries.

By actively involving ourselves in research and development of new tests, we can provide safer and more effective laboratory testing for our patients."
