My name is Alexander (or call me Alex instead). I am a medical student at National Taiwan University. Outside of medicine, I am interested in Computer Science, especially the field of Machine Learning (Deep Learning and Reinforcement Learning in particular, since Machine Learning is a gigantic field of study). Moreover, I am a Tech Startup enthusiast, as I read news related to software and hardware startups frequently and co-founded StarTaiwan, High School Startup Challenge in Taiwan. I also pay attention to Health and Education Policies.
