Pioneering Medical Research at Harvard 哈佛醫研探索之旅 During her Enrichment Year, Ananya Jain embarked on a transformative journey at Harvard University, immersing herself in cutting-edge research at the Center for Engineered Therapeutics (the CET Lab). She focused on glucocorticoidinduced osteocyte dysfunction using advanced techniques like western blotting and flow cytometry. ‘The CET Lab at Harvard Medical School offered a unique blend of engineering, biology, and clinical medicine,’ said Ananya, ‘which was perfectly aligned with my fascination for advancing medical treatments.’ The time at Harvard was a pivotal period, in which she gained invaluable technical skills beyond the clinical aspects of the MBBS curriculum. ‘Working at the CET Lab deepened my appreciation for the meticulous science behind medical breakthroughs and reinforced my commitment to bridging research and patient care,’ she said. Ananya 於增潤學年期間在哈佛大學工程治療研究實驗中心（簡稱 CET Lab）實習，專注於研究糖皮質激素引起的骨細胞功能障礙治 療技術（如蛋白質轉漬法和流式細胞技術）。她分享道：「哈佛醫學 院的 CET Lab結合工程、生物學和臨床醫學的獨特環境，與我對 醫學治療技術發展的興趣完美契合。」 她認為增潤學年令她獲得了 MBBS 課程臨床以外的技能。她總結道：「在CET Lab的工作加深 了我對醫學技術突破背後精密科學的理解，並加強了我利用研究去 改善照顧患者的決心。」 As a film enthusiast, Isabella spent her Enrichment Year at the New York Film Academy, studying cinematography. Over the course of the year, Isabella earned a diploma in cinematography, mastering lighting, rigging, equipment, and camera operation. She worked on diverse projects ― from advertisements and music videos to short films ― honing her craft through hands-on experience. One of her most unforgettable moments was braving the winter cold, waking at 1 am to drive to a beach in New Jersey to film a sunrise scene. ‘The freezing wind made it hard to even keep my eyes open,’ she recalled, ‘but seeing the final product made all the challenges worth it.’ Throughout the year, she not only gained valuable skills, but also had the opportunity to collaborate with industry professionals. Isabella also learnt the value of time management, meticulous preparation and teamwork, which directly benefitted her medical studies and future career. 身為電影愛好者的姚君盈在增潤學年前往紐約電影學院攻讀電影攝 影。在為期一年的進修中，她取得電影攝影文憑，熟練掌握燈光、 器械架設、設備操作與攝影機運鏡等。從廣告、音樂視頻到短片， 她透過實戰參與多元項目，不斷精進技藝。最難忘的經歷，是某個 寒冬凌晨一點，她驅車前往新澤西海灘拍攝日出場景。「刺骨寒風讓 人連睜眼都困難。」她回憶道。「但看到成品的瞬間，一切挑戰都值 得了。」這一年裡，她不僅累積寶貴技能，更與業界專業人士合作， 拓展視野。她亦深刻體會到時間管理、周密準備與團隊合作的價值， 這對她的醫學學習與未來職業生涯大有裨益。 Lights, Camera, Stethoscope 光影、鏡頭、聽診器 FEATURE Ananya Jain Isabella Iu Kwan-ying 姚君盈 14
