Background

I graduated from National Taiwan University with a BSc in Nursing. After few years of clinical experience in Paediatrics Intensive Care Unit, I decided to further my education in Nursing. I completed the Master of Nursing in Clinical Research (MN) at the University of Edinburgh. The MN programme offered me the opportunity to work with research teams in Scotland and enhances my interests in research. Therefore, I decided to pursue my education in PhD study.

I am interested in the area of fever management and fever knowledge.

Project activity

My research is aiming to explore nurses’ knowledge and management of fever. A mixed methods approach is planning to be adopted.
