Yun Hui Tan

Hi everyone! My name is Abigail / Yun Hui and I am running for Secretary of the Society of Research and Academia. Research is a field I find great interest in, and I am always excited to attend conferences to find out about medical research advancements. In high school, I undertook various research attachments, from investigating and modelling complex/ chaotic systems to investigating the efficacy of rust removers. Therefore, I am keen in helping to cultivate research interests/ making research opportunities more accessible for medical students, which is why I want to run for secretary of SORA.

I was on subcommittee for iPRAS and Surgical Society, where I helped to acquire items needed for conferences and helped with the set-up/ cleanup during conferences. In addition, I helped to welcome some of the speakers/ demonstrators. I believe my experience in organising conferences will be an asset to SORA.

This year, I am the female lead character in the Singapore Society musical, and I have performed at multiple events for ICSM Choir and Chamber Choir. These performance gigs have honed my confidence and have taught me the value of constant self-improvement, which are key qualities for a leader. Juggling all these commitments in medical school over the last year has also developed my time-management skills, which would enable me to serve wholeheartedly as secretary of SORA.

Please vote for me! <3
