Women in STEM #3 - Dr Oon Chern Ein

Dr Oon Chern Ein is an Associate Professor at INFORMM – the Institute For Research in Molecular Medicine, Universiti Sains Malaysia. In 2019, she received The Most Promising Academician Award from the Ministry of Education. She joins us to talk about her passion for science, which only started to bloom as she was doing her PHD, and why she thinks it’s important to strive for excellence, not perfection.

This episode is part of our Women in STEM series, where we’re highlighting brilliant women in the field of Science Technology, Engineering and Mathematics.
