Camilla Sih Mai Pang (born February 1992) is a British computational biologist,[1] writer, and autism advocate. In 2020, she was awarded the Royal Society Prize for Science Books for her memoir, Explaining Humans: What Science Can Teach Us about Life, Love and Relationships.[2]
Early life and education
Pang has said that she was not a typical child, and evaluated her early friendships in terms of computer code.[3] At the age of eight Pang was diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder, and asked her mother whether there was an instruction manual for life.[4][5] Pang attended Wycliffe College, Gloucestershire.[6] She studied mathematics, physics, biology and art for GCE Advanced Level.[6] Pang joined the University of Bristol as an undergraduate student, where she specialised in biochemistry. She earned a PhD in computational biology at University College London where her research was supervised by Christine Orengo.[7][8][9][10]
Career
After earning her doctorate, Pang joined a pharmaceutical companyШаблон:Clarify as a postdoctoral researcher.[11] Her research considers the computational model of disease in an effort to identify new pharmaceutical options for neurological diseases.[12]
In 2020 Pang released her first book, Explaining Humans: What Science Can Teach Us about Life, Love and Relationships.[2] The book explores what it means to be human, discussing social etiquette, relationships and perfectionism.[2]
Alongside her scientific research, Pang looks to inspire young people to study science.[13] She has spoken openly about her neurodiversity, and campaigned for increased awareness of autism amongst young women.[12][14]
Awards and honours
Pang was awarded the Royal Society Prize for Science Books in 2020[15][16] for her memoir Explaining Humans: What Science Can Teach Us about Life, Love and Relationships.[2]
Personal life
At the age of twenty six, Pang was diagnosed with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD).[17]
