Description: Chiungwei, originally from Taiwan, is a scientist and science journalist.
Currently, I’m a chemist in the industry where I work on developing materials analysis methods and research. I also lead inclusion and diversity initiatives that aim at women retention and Asian-Pacific group engagement across the company. Externally, I serve as a peer-review expert for scientific publications and media engagement director at the Journal of Science Policy and Governance .
I’m bilingual—occasionally I write in Mandarin and one of my most popular pieces (about bubble tea) appeared in Business Today of Taiwan.
As a Ph.D. mom and first-generation immigrant, I've faced obstacles while developing strategies to achieve my professional and personal goals.
