Student Ambassador from April 2021 to March 2023

Hi! My name is Ryza. I’m currently a first-year master’s student at the Department of Life Science and Technology. Driven by my strong interests in Artificial Intelligence and Health Sciences, I joined Yamada Laboratory of Genome Informatics to leverage gut microbiome data and Machine Learning algorithms for colorectal cancer diagnostics.
