Tan Wei Ting
Affiliate, Neurosurgery
BioWei Ting graduated from University Malaya under the Department of Biomedical Engineering (Bachelor & Master's).Apart from multidisciplinary (tissue engineering, medical imaging, computational biology) research experience, she has worked in startups, industry, clinics, and medical centres with exposure to rehabilitation robotics, TCM in fertility, and clinical trials.
Her past undergraduate research experience includes
1. Dr Belinda Murphy’s Tissue Engineering Lab to assist in cell culturing and cytotoxicity testing
2. Asian Cardiac Laboratory under Dr Lim Einly for medical imaging-based investigation of flow energetics and vortex parameters in heart attack patients
For master's research, funded under Newton Advanced Fellowship in collaboration with Imperial College London’s Prof Xu group and UTM's Dr Mohd Jamil’s group.
1. Research focus: investigating the risk factor of distal stent induced new entry in aortic dissection patients using both simplified and patient-specific models.
2. Presented in local and international conference, published peer review studies and has reviewed paper relevant to the project.
With curiosity for knowledge, arts, philosophy, and the sciences, she often diving into new fields, moves across disciplines, and combines several areas of knowledge. She gained both lab-based and computational skills, for example: bioinformatics, pharmacokinetic modelling, cell staining, confocal microscopy, FRET cell transfection, live cell imaging, image processing, high-performance computing, quantum algorithms, etc.
At MSU, she is part of the Tau Beta Pi National Honor Society and Cloud Computing Foundations (CCF) Program. For the cloud program, her interest is in applying a hybrid quantum-classical computational framework to small-molecule drug development. She is currently a PhD student in Biomedical Engineering from Michigan State University, performing computational analysis and exploring quantum algorithms for biomedical applications in cell and gene regulatory networks.
Wei Ting has been active in learning more about different facets of medicine and often engages with researchers and physicians. She has gained familiarity with neurological disease (e.g. autism, Parkinson's, and Alzheimer's) from different perspectives (e.g., rehabilitation robotics, brain simulation, and psychiatry). She is invited to join the Neurobehavior and Neuroscience Methods Workshop (SPrINT/Stanford) in 2026. -

Brooke Weigel
Assistant Professor of Oceans
BioDr. Brooke Weigel is a marine ecologist. Her research focuses on the ecology, physiology, and genomics of marine algae and microbial communities in the ocean. She is particularly interested in the feedbacks between climate change, kelp forests, microbes & carbon cycling in the ocean. Her research uses a variety of tools and methods, including field and lab experiments, genomics, bioinformatics, algal culturing, scientific scuba diving, ecophysiology, and biogeochemistry. Overall, her esearch aims to improve our understanding of coastal marine ecosystems with the overall goal of ensuring a healthy, productive, and resilient ocean. The Weigel Lab is based at Hopkins Marine Station in Pacific Grove, CA.

Center for European Studies. He was a Fellow at the Center for Advanced Study in
the Behavioral Sciences, and has been awarded research fellowships and grants
by, among others, the British Council, the Japan Society for the Promotion of
Science, the Spencer Foundation, the Thyssen Foundation, the Friedrich Ebert
Foundation, and the Deutsche Bank Foundation. In 1993, he was appointed a
professor of comparative politics and elected the first Rektor (president) of Viadrina
European University at Frankfurt (Oder), a position from which he retired in the fall
of 1999. He chaired the Commission on Higher Education of the State of Saxony
(1999-2002) and was instrumental in the founding and development of the Hertie
School of Governance in Berlin from 2002 to 2009. He has served in a variety of
advisory and consulting roles in German and European higher education between

of Governance in Berlin, of the international boards of the Free University of Berlin
and the Wirtschaftsuniversität Wien, of the Advisory Board of the Center for Higher
Education Development (CHE) in Germany, and of the Global Scientific Committee
for UNESCO’s Forum on Higher Education, Research and Knowledge. His service
as an evaluator includes the “Excellence Initiative” in German higher education, the
Berlin Social Science Research Center (Wissenschaftszentrum Berlin), the
University of Freiburg, and various award competitions on research, teaching
quality, and teacher education. His recent speaking engagements have included
invited addresses in New York, Paris, Vienna, Budapest, San Francisco,
Heidelberg, Berlin, Frankfurt/Main, Kuala Lumpur, Trieste, Johannesburg, Cape
Town, Munich, Istanbul, and Stanford. He has been awarded the Order of Merit of
