Rebecca Yan
MSc Student
Rebecca is a Master of Science student in Chemical Engineering co-supervised by Prof. Noémie-Manuelle Dorval Courchesne. She is working on the fabrication of bio-based fibres for the synthesis of textile yarn. She has received a scholarship from the CREATE SEED (Collaborative Research and Training Experience in Sustainable Electronics and Eco-Design) for her master’s degree. During her BSc in Chemistry, she worked on synthesizing aqueous nanoclusters for photodynamic therapy (PDT) and optimizing the synthesis of deuterated dopamine. Outside of the lab, Rebecca likes to listen to podcasts, read fiction books, watch new movies, and spend time with her friends and family!
