As a second-year undergraduate in Life Sciences, concentrating in Molecular and Cell Biology, Fabian has a dream of discovering new things in research and development. Although he is pursuing a Science degree, he has the flexibility of being in other fields such as graphic design, publications and IT. His laboratory experience in secondary school sparked off his passion for research and laboratory work. While working for the International Soil Science Conference of Malaysia 2007, he was exposed to scientific journals by his employer, and thus deepened his interest in research. He also has a strong belief in importance of experience in trial-and-error, challenges and feats rather than studying for examinations.
Academics aside, he enjoys music, both listening and performing. He was a Senior Member and Secretary in his secondary school band. He held several responsibilities to teach junior members on music (theory and practical), conduct the band and design formations for state-level competitions. Heavy commitments in the school band have taught him excellent time management skills, which is applicable during his time in the university. He currently holds several positions in NUS Students’ Union (NUSSU) Standing Committees and other students’ societies.
Believing in continuous learning, he is currently developing his written and verbal communication skills through different platforms.

Hi Fabian! You are in NUSSU? That's so cool! I always believe being in NUSSU committee is a great exposure for one before he/she steps out into the real world. It's a good preparation for one on the experiences of responsibility-taking in NUSSU.
Hey Grace. I'm in the standing committees, not the Executive Committee (which requires internal elections). I learnt a lot though. All these liaising, coordinating and negotiating skills learnt are essential. A lot of commitment and effort are required when holding these positions but it's all worthwhile when we graduate. Being nostalgic.
Hey Fabs! You're really a diverse learner, having skills in many other areas out of science! Kudos to you! Your passion for research is admirable and your belief in the enjoyment of learning and process of it is something that is worth encouraging! Cheers to a multi-faceted lifestyle!
Hey Jocelyn. Many thanks for your encouraging comments. You have skills out of science too! Sometimes hobbies can be jobs later instead of our major. We never know.
Hello Fabian =)
Looks like still water does run deep. =p Who knew you were a man of so many talents? Very nice biodata that highlighted your leadership abilities/experience and your passion for science. All the best for your future!
hi fabs, loved your biodata!!. Honestly i didnt know biodata existed before we had to do this post.. i like the way it is done in a 2nd person kind of way. and the way you were potrayed as a very well-rounded individual.good job!
Hey all,
Thanks for the encouraging comments. I do wish I can equally excel in academics but I'm not an "exam material". =)
exam material.. >.< we shall see an exam paper or module named after you soon.
wow.. actually getting a profile on the international scene is really something that one cant really get enough of! wished i had a chance like you.
Research seems to be your passion and that's great. A true scientist! Your participation in an international conference compliments your interests, and really shows that you are serious about research.
Your interest in music, and NUSSU involvements balances out well.
