Pulmo+Tribe



My name is Dr. Ngoc and I’m 30 years old. I’m currently working in Children's Hospital of Philadelphia in PA for 3 years. I’d love to do research and help those children with the most dangerous illness in the world – cancer. I got my Doctor Degree at University of Washington in Seattle WA. I have heard about the survivor competition and I’d love to work and co-operate with others to compete and especially to gain more personal experiences.

My name is Dr. Lui. I'm 32 years old and currently working at Princeton Plainsborough in New Jersey. I graduated from Johns Hopkins University. I am happy to be in this version of survivor because I can develop my skills even more and be able to acquire new skills. Also, I feel that I will be very useful to my team because of my experience from working with Dr. House, and the lessons i learned at J.H. University will certainly help me with diagnosing.

The challenge is going to be performed by groups/tribes of Doctors, who are abandoned on an island. They are to diagnose a patient and determine what is his disease. They will be given challenges that will test their knowledge, teamwork and creativity to prove which system of the body is the most important for survival.

First of all, we have to get online to communicate and cooperate with each other to complete the challenge. We were doing good until the task of making the logo came up, it was hard for us to look for programs to design it. However, we put our best effort to win this challenge.
