For those thinking about going to graduate school, you might be wondering how your future studies will affect your life. What I found at FBS was the joy of discovering what really interests me. FBS is a welcoming place for research that starts from unexpected ideas, and the experience of creating new trends in research has been helpful in my job and life after graduation.
Currently, I am involved in drug discovery for neurodegenerative diseases at a pharmaceutical company. Formulating hypotheses for the treatment of diseases with unclear causes and conducting research to demonstrate them is a challenging task. But, the ability to find solutions and keep trying without giving up comes from my experience of delving into interesting research at FBS, which, I believe, helps create innovation. FBS is also a great place for students to connect with each other. When research becomes challenging, sharing and discussing problems with friends from different labs can help their research.
I encourage you all to immerse yourselves in research and discover what interests you. I'm sure beyond that, each of you will discover an exciting future waiting for you.
