Welcome to
About
I’m Matthew Szeto, a high school student interested in the intersection of biology, medicine, and technology. I’m drawn to questions that can become something tangible, whether that means investigating them through research or building a solution around them. Much of what interests me begins with problems that are still unresolved and worth exploring.
Outside of my academic work, I play piano and compete in speech and debate. I tend to stay with an idea long after the initial question has been answered, especially when it leads somewhere unexpected. I value conversations in much the same way. I would rather have my assumptions challenged than leave knowing exactly what I knew when I arrived.
