One Health Laboratory 

I am a veterinarian; I hold a position as an assistant professor in colleague of medicine at Chang Gung University. I obtained my bachelor’s and Master’s degrees in Veterinary Medicine from National Taiwan University. I have another clinical master’s degree in Veterinary Clinical Medicine specialized in avian pathology from Ecole Nationale Vétérinaire d’Alfort, France. I received my PhD in Animal Genetics from the Institut National Agronomique Paris-Grignon in France. Before joining Chang Gung University, I was a researcher at French National Center for Scientific Research (CNRS) and at Pasteur Institute, Paris, where I received my training to work in biosafety level 3 laboratories (P3), and I was in charge of a research program on influenza viruses in wild birds. The Research Center for Emerging Viral Infections which contains several biosafety level 2 laboratories (P2 plus) at Chang Gung University was designed by me due to my experiences from Pasteur Institute. My major research areas are: emerging and re-emerging viral infections, genomics, molecular genetics, zoonotic diseases, international collaboration, and international innovation and entrepreneurship.

​

I have a very broad international contact network especially with European countries because I speak fluently both French and English. I was the project leader of a Taiwan-Czech bilateral research project during 2010 to 2012. I was the co-investigator of the Health National Contact Point, Taiwan, of EU Framework Program from 2011 to 2013. From 2014 to 2016, I was the co-investigator of a French-Taiwan ANR project. From 2019 August, I become the Chief Executive Officer at Chang Gung university of the Global Research & Industry Alliance (GLORIA), Ministry of Science and Technology, Taiwan. I am in charge of setting international collaborative programs between Chang-Gung University and EU/French partners. I am also now the president of the l’Association Franco-Taiwanais des échanges academiques, culturels, et  économiques. Outside the laboratory and the classroom, I enjoy spending time with my family, traveling and tasting Taiwan and French cuisine.
