Please tell us about your own research and what you find interesting about it.
I enjoy thinking about how to process biological data (images) to make new discoveries.
Please tell us about the difficulties and joys of the research field.
It's like an experiment—you can find a solution only after you have tried and failed at various programs and so on. That's what makes it interesting.
Please tell us about the expected results and social significance of the project.
