(Dr. Percy D.P. Akuetteh, College of Science and Technology, Wenzhou Kean University):

Is a native of Ghana and a graduate of Wenzhou Medical University (WMU), China. Dr. Percy has lived in China for 12 years starting as MBBS student from 2010-2016 then continued by perusing an MD PhD 5year program in General Surgery Specializing in Hepatobiliary Surgery diseases at Wenzhou Medical university’s first affiliated hospital.

As part of his training at WMU he became a tutor for medical Terminology (Surgery Section). Percy’s academic interests broaden after his post-college experiences working in Wenzhou Suis High School, where he became a Biology Tutor.

Dr. Percy enjoys Singing as a hobby and has won many awards in the past years. His Artist Name is Percy阿达.

Dr. Percy’s research focus is mainly on Oncology, Bioinformatics and Surgical materials and equipment’s. He seeks to research more into the use of protein and Gene expression and its relations to human cancer. The broader aim of his research is to further apply this knowledge Clinically and Pharmaceutical industry.
