Early life and education
Chan graduated from the University of Cambridge with both a BA and an MA in natural science.[1] She graduated from MIT in 2010 with a PhD in biology.[2] After graduation, Chan interned at Changi General Hospital before coming to the realization that medicine was not her calling.[3] She sought out an education scholarship, receiving a fellowship from A*STAR, a Singaporean research institute, which led to a $750,000 startup grant; Chan was able to use this to start her own lab at Nanyang Technological University (NTU) and the Lee Kong Chian School of Medicine.[1]
