Ceres’ Wet Team
Ying Jin (Crystal)
My name is Crystal Ying Jin and I am the captain of the wet team. I always
encourage communications and corporations within the team and thanks to all my teammates, all the
work was done efficiently and under an enjoyable atmosphere. I am very into neuroscience and
pharmacology. I dreamed of inventing a new antidepressant which has minimum side effects. I enjoy
reading crime fiction in my spare time.
Yuqi Jiang (Lucy)
Lucy is the team’s expert of gel preparation. From SDS PAGE gel for protein
testing to agarose gel for DNA, she is the one you can always count on to get some gel done and
dusted.
Nahari Fukuga
Fukuga is the Tokyo SHSID kid with ultimate passions in negotiating and
studying the experiments. Or we may just call him as the AG kid, which is the abbreviation for
“acute gastroenteritis” where he caught this acute inflammation for 5days and had to rest for a long
time after this offline training. Besides of these nonsense, in the group, Fukuga is the eminent
negotiator that performed as a glue stick mingles and congregates other team members. After
experiments, Fukuga is always “asking for the moon” and learning detailed particulars from coaches.
At last, by Fukuga acting as the “Elmer’s super glue”, our team harmoniously accomplished our works.
Ye Sun (Susie)
Susie is from Shanghai. She must be one of the hardest members in our team
because she is always doing her homework either during rest time and after class. According to
Susie, her skin problems became stubborn due to the useless and torturous work of the school, which
means that it cannot be eliminated by the mask. But Susie is also the most active person to record
the experiment process.
Qin Xiao (Miya)
Hi! I am Miya. I am currently a high school student in Guangzhou. I am
interesting in biology and health related major for college. I also enjoy participate in sports
events such as volleyball and tennis games. Sometimes doing so much sports makes me not like a
person who want to study more biology in the future, but I will always take it important. Cuz that’s
the easiest way to keep healthy and make our lives thrive.
Yingzhe Xia (Mark)
Mark is a very active member of the team Ceres, he is very interested in
biology and he is very passionate towards everyday lab work. He is keen to help anyone with any
problems. He has extremely outstanding English speaking skills and he takes the hang of
representation of our project to people really well.

China, and I'm a junior at Carlucci American International School of Lisbon. I'm passionate about
journalism and music. I love writing news articles and performing with my school's orchestra. I also
enjoy reading and gaming when I have time. Since I could not return to China this summer, I worked
with my teammates remotely online, where I was mostly responsible for the wiki. My interests are in
pharmacology, and hopefully, one day, I can become a research scientist, and I hope to gain lots of
experience throughout the process of competition.
Yifan Qi (Jennifer)
I am Qi Yifan, English name is Jennifer, I am 18 years old. I am introverted.
When I first meet, I feel very cold, but in fact, after I get familiar with me, I will find that I
am like a madman. Many people around me evaluate me as a little sun, because I can always bring
happiness to others. And I am still a very friendly person, and I am very willing to listen, And
give some suggestions to others or help them solve problems together. When I help others, I will be
very happy. At the same time, I will work very hard. I will make a plan for myself and strive to
complete the plan every day. I am very interested in biology. I can't read mathematics or literature
for a few hours, but let me study papers on biology, I can stay for hours without rest, and
sometimes I even miss dinner. I really love biology.
