Meet Dr. Yen-Ping Hsueh, Associate Research Fellow at Academia Sinica, who turned her childhood passion for science into a groundbreaking career exploring the mysterious world of fungus and nematodes. 

Using genetic tools as her lens, she uncovered captivating secrets behind the textbook tale of fungi that hunt worms — bringing life to biology with fresh scientific curiosity.

In a historic achievement, Dr. Hsueh has been named a member of the prestigious Max Planck Society in September 2024 — making her the first from Taiwan to receive this honor! Her success is a powerful reminder that even non-applied, fundamental science can shine brilliantly on the world stage.
