About Me

scientist of stem cell and regeneration medicine working in San Francisco. Interested in art, history and German culture.

I am a 11 year couch surfing member, and now living in one of the most popular cities in the whole world. I receive average 5 request everyday. Please don't feel offended if I decline or don't give elaborative reply.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I use couchsurfing to tell myself not to generalize people, treat everyone case by case. Recently, I have met unpunctual German...

Interests

I like people watching. I like asking people where are they from, what their hometowns are famous for, what their life goals are, and I always pay attention to their facial expression. (Also, who are they wearing these days). Streets of your hometown, your kitchen setup as well as your bookshelf.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I came from Anshan, Liaoning, China, sent out more than 100 emails to professors all over the U.S., after preparing for TOEFL and GRE for 3 years, and I made it to the U.S. and now I finished my Ph.D. in Neurobiolgy, went to Stanford for further training, working with Nobel Prize Laureate, now working in USCF.

Update: In July 2018, I met and chatted with one of my favorite photographers-Steven Klein, he signed a Xerox copy of his work.
