Meeting started …
Thanks to our beloved Blisser, Winnie’s invitation, our guest speaker, today’s host, Yung-Li Wang supported to give us such a great meeting as interesting as expected.
What do you know about Harvard or MIT? They are...
1. Prestigious universities for business, scientific fields and Nobel laureates.
2. Both are neighboring universities but with different campus climate; Harvard is more diversified while MIT is more systematic.
Why choosing Boston?
1. Famous as Biotechnology silicon
2. Many startups for medical talents and entrepreneurs.
Scientific interest stemming from Childhood
As a child to a mechanic, he liked to deconstruct and assemble machines, for which he gained no blame but encouragement from his father instead. Since then it made the scientific observation his best career choice—study in single-cell protein and bio-chemistry. For your ref: https://www.facebook.com/scimaker/
Boston Trip & others
1. Freedom Trail about 2.5 mile long
2. Site of Boston Massacre
3. Capitol Hill, Jefferson Memorial Hall, Washington Monument, White House and Mount Washington, and an aquarium there.
An Ideal place(s) to explore
They were varied by ages and situations; one said it would be nowhere but the site for spiritual peace; one for Holland; one for literary spots; one for 3-day Robinson Crusoe’s drift in an isolated island; one for Ecuador Galapagos and someone said to make an ideal one from her end. All answers were innovative and inviting
Reflections:
We really appreciated Winnie’s invitation and Yung-Li ‘s splendid topic which really aroused our biological and observing interest. In addition, he rewarded the winners with wonderful flame-less picture gifts. With Yung-Li’s efforts and the outputs of all the participants, we enjoyed a memorable meeting ever this Saturday afternoon.
