I love this woman. She is so amazing and gives really good lectures. For 7C she mainly lectures about gene editing for the last 2-3 weeks, so it is a bit different in class since CRISPR and gene editing are still really new fields compared to everything that Khankan would lecture about. As a person though she is so nice and just radiates queen energy. I would high recommend her.

A real queen. period.

Standard 7C class, i just think Hsiao was underwhelming. Too soft spoken and never very good at explaining answers honestly. Compared to Khankan she was subpar. Very nice though.

I had Hsiao for the second half of LS 7C. Compared to Khankan, I found her teaching style to be a bit underwhelming. She's very sweet, but I don't feel that her lectures were as engaging. Also, I found that the second half of LS 7C was harder because a lot of the material was no longer taught by the textbook but rather by lecture videos on Launchpad, which I feel weren't specific enough to accommodate for the quiz questions that were being thrown at us. I also did not like how CRISPR was introduced to the class, as I wish there had been a more in-depth explanation as how to navigate the genome browser website. The last few weeks of this class just felt so disorganized and all over the place, and I absolutely hated it. Although, this may not be a flaw of the actual professor herself but just the class set-up. Overall, Hsiao was kind and easy to talk to, and I wasn't afraid to ask her questions. I just wish she had been more detailed in her lectures.

Having Dr. Hsiao as a professor at the end of LS7C was such a relief. Finally done with this series and the professor is super sweet and attentive towards students. The end of the quarter material weren't as difficult as the beginning's, though a bit more vague when taught initially. I found I had to Google a lot of terms to figure out the process of things, but otherwise the class was okay (as good as you'd expect from an LS7 class).
Someone else mentioned that Dr. Hsiao was a bit soft-spoken in comparison to Dr. Khankan, which I agree, but appreciated more. Her personality was a nice fit for the end of the quarter, and either way, she still is a great lecturer.
Also, her mini house tour at the beginning of the quarter was so sweet and wholesome :')
I loved being in her class!
