Our Team
Matthew Zirui Tay, Ph.D.
I’m interested in pushing new frontiers with technology and solving problems that bring a benefit to people. When I’m not writing a new grant or publication, I like to read science fiction or spend time with my family singing Psalms.
Lin Weikang, Nicholas, Ph.D.
I am interested in the development of microfluidic tools for translational and high-throughput screening applications, particularly in the field of infectious disease. Outside of work, I love playing video games, watching movies and listening to the works of the legendary ⚡David Bowie⚡ .
I’ve always had a keen interest in immunology and infectious diseases, and I find lab work really fun. I enjoy running experiments to completion as it’s really satisfying (and I also like to whine to people when something goes wrong). When I’m not in the lab, I’ll typically be hanging out with friends, working out, or taking random classes.

Ajayanandan Yadunandan
I’m interested in learning how infectious diseases impacts society and novel ways to combat them. I feel science is like magic that works and enjoy doing lab work. In my free time I’ll usually explore new places to eat with my friends or burn the midnight oil to watch my favorite football or F1 team in action.
Ho Wei Shen, Ph.D.
I am interested in understanding the molecular mechanisms underlying effective therapeutics and drug resistance, particularly in infectious agents. Outside of lab, I enjoy spending time with my loved ones (and finding good food!).
Chonlatip Pipattanaboon, Ph.D.
I'm passionate about developing antibodies against infectious diseases and translating them into clinical therapeutics. Outside of work, I enjoy hiking, traveling, trying new foods, and spending time with my cat.
Aarthi Anantharajan
Awed by the complexity of the human body and medicine since young, I pursue research as an extension of my joy for learning, inquiry, and scientific discovery, and care for the human condition. I am interested in building high-throughput microfluidics-based platforms for therapeutic discovery against infectious diseases, aspiring to advance human health with respect for those served. During my free time, I love exploring creative outlets such as art, music, and dance, and enjoy spending time with my loved ones!
Benedicta Bright Mensah
I am interested in understanding mechanisms of B cell development in infection and vaccination as well as antibody production. Apart from this, I love to dance, watch stage plays and do photography.
