This is looking great @minnieho1115! Just a few comments and then we should be ok to go.

Please can you rename the file without the !? I think it will confuse some websites to have it in the filename.

My name is Yini He(何旖旎).I’m a PhD student with a major in neuroimaging at the University of Electronic Science and Technology of China (UESTC).It is truly amazing for me to study in the WhitakerLab at the Alan Turing Institute as a visiting student,jointly funded by Chinese Scholarship Council (CSC) and the Newton Fund.I am enthusiastic about the relationship between individual traits, the brain and emotions, and particularly the associated risks of developing mental disorders.

I was born in Changsha city of China which famous for the spicy dishes and excessively distinct seasons. And then I moved to Haikou, which famous for the gentlest sea wind and spring-like seasons. As its title indicates, these two cities have extreme difference, just like a song plays from a gentle and poetic melody to passionate and fiery bursts, fully influencing the two sides of my personality. I am happy and passionate at work, at the same time, enjoy a totally peaceful and quiet life.

I love travelling around the world. The coexistence of the classics with the prosperity of London attracts me incredibly. The people there are gentle and full of artistic temperament. Modern and beautiful Vancouver attracts me just as much. The people there understand the beauty of cultural integration. Da Nang beckons to me with it’s mysteriousness and simplicity. The people there are warm and kind.

At the same time, I am interested in all kinds of traditional Chinese culture, with its food, traditional clothing, calligaraphy, tea and Guqin(an ancient instrument of China). With a history of 5000 years, China has preserved its ancient philosophy and beautiful civilization. More often, I am fascinated by the merging of Chinese and western cultures. I used to play the ukelele wearing Qipao(a traditional dress of China). I also tried cooking a Chinese meal with fish and chips.

# Life and work goals
## Life and work goals

--Ideal comes from life(理想源于生活)
+>Ideal comes from life(理想源于生活)

My university major is psychology. In my senior year, I decided to go to a special school and work as an intern teacher there. The students at this school were suffering from mental disorder. This was the first time that I truly understood the importance of mental health at heart. I love those children even when some of them say things that are illogical and incoherent, while still others just always sat in a corner. But there are those who have great artistic talents. Some of them are attractive and have a friendly disposition, willing to be best friends with me. Ever since then, I’ve always thought about these teenagers and hope that they could have a better life with the help of medical and therapeutic advancements for mental health.

Can you save this file name without the !_? Just rename to 4yuanmingyuan5.jpg because it makes the formatting in markdown rather strange to have the _ and the ! in the file name.

My major was modified to Neuroimaging.
The brilliance of how the brain works totally amazed me.
I became very interested in regions of the brain and the connectivity and the fiber bundle of the brain where the source for the link between human behavior and emotion could be found and studied.

Now I came to the Turing Institute and I was pleasantly surprised here. I love Kirstie’s energy and she always give supports to me. She told me that I should do what I am most interested in. I hope to learn from her how to do the most convincing research. I also hope to learn from her passion to try to change the world.

## Ryan Chan

Ryan is a first-year doctoral student at the Alan Turing Institute and Warwick.
His smile is full of energy.
minnieho1115 marked this conversation as resolved.
Show resolved Hide resolved
He loved and studied mathematics at the University of Leeds, where he developed a keen interest in Bayesian theory and computational statistics.
His current research interest is broadly concerned with addressing practical constraints of common Monte Carlo algorithms.
In particular, Ryan’s research focuses on Monte Carlo Fusion, which aims to tackle the problem of unifying distributed analyses and inferences from multiple sources on shared parameters, into a single coherent inference.
Applications include expert elicitation, differential privacy and inference in big data settings.

Now, she is currently working with Kirstie to design and build a citizen science platform, which I think is a great program.

This will be used to investigate sensory processing and navigating environments, but it can also be adapted to answer other research questions.
She is co-designing an ethical framework to go along with the platform, based on methods of participatory science.
Her research interests also include open source working and building a fine-grained consent model, as well as the psychology of interactions with technology, for example how to share data online.
Georgia told me that she is really enjoying her research.

There are lots of avenues of growth which are possible from for current work, including developing skills in open source, programming languages, and the philosophy of technology/ethics.
She also told me some impressive experiences in Turing! (It is also impressive for me to make friend with Geogia!)

In the field of autism research, there has been a shift in the way that autism is spoken about and analysed and understood.

One example of this is a movement away from the trope of ‘defect’ to one of autistic pride, accomplishment, and the value of neurodiversity.

She has been taking part in amazing research about a genetic variant protects against obesity, type 2 diabetes.

This gene is called the MC4R.It could protect people from being overweight.
MC4R could act as a "switch" in the brain that tells us not to eat after a meal.
Meanwhile, mutations in the MC4R gene, which is associated with a higher risk of obesity, can cause MC4R to stop working.
The research has been watched by drug companies who believe the genetic variation could help people achieve or maintain weight loss.
Chen said she love working at Turing.She is very excited to get access to a lot of latest knowledge of artificial intelligence here.
