“I am proud of being a female scientist in IHPC for Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) research in the past 20 years. Since my joining right after my PhD graduation, I had extensively explored research and developed solutions for enhancing operation efficiency and risk management in complex systems including public health system, logistics and supply chain system and maritime system etc. using data analytics, simulation and optimisation techniques. It is fascinating to discover the similarity and difference of patterns across different systems with my colleagues and we had great experiences working with domain stakeholders to develop technologies and solutions leveraging on scientific data and domain knowledge. We are very happy to see our modelling work had contributed to the fight with COVID 19 pandemic, dengue fever control, supply chain disruption mitigation strategies recommendation, and maritime operation pattern detection and traffic safety management enhancement over years of research efforts.”
