Biography

Siew completed a Bachelor of Science with Honours in Polymer Chemistry at the University of Singapore. She then worked as a research engineer at the Institute of Chemical and Engineering Sciences where she studied the reactivity and catalytic potential of platinum sulfide compounds. This project led to her PhD research in the use of bridging Pt₂(µ-S)₂ cores to generate organic materials. Siew was awarded a PhD in 2007 from the National University of Singapore. Following her PhD, she was a senior journal publishing associate within the Life Sciences department at Wiley-Blackwell, Oxford UK. Siew then relocated to Australia in 2009 where she undertook casual teaching appointments at the University of Sydney in 2010, and at Monash University in 2013. In 2017, Siew accepted a full-time position at UNE. She has a strong interest in chemical education research and collaboration, in particular the development of online adaptive learning tools that enhance student confidence, engagement and the overall learning experience.

The University of New England respects and acknowledges that its people, courses and facilities are built on land, and surrounded by a sense of belonging, both ancient and contemporary, of the world's oldest living culture. In doing so, UNE values and respects Indigenous knowledge systems as a vital part of the knowledge capital of Australia. We recognise the strength, resilience and capacity of the Aboriginal community and pay our respects to the Elders past, present and future.
