Environment & Upbringing
Isolated Colony/Starfleet
Michael Chan grew up on a barren outpost on the dark edge of nowhere, a Starfleet quarantine facility specifically geared towards studying extremely volatile medical hazards in isolated conditions.
Starfleet Academy
Officer/Sciences Track
When Michael came of age and passed all his entry exams, he joined the Starfleet Academy and completed the bulk of his training on the Earth campus. Socially, it was a huge culture shock, which Michael dealt with primarily by burying himself in his studies.
Alien biology and artificial enhancements became chosen specialties.
Career Events
Special Commendation/Recruited to Starfleet Intelligence
During his first deployment, Michael successfully treated an odd outbreak on his ship that should never have happened given the supposed conditions on board. The crew was exposed to an alien virus that was later determined to have been introduced by sabotage. As a result, Michael received a very public commendation for recognizing the strain for what it was and catching it in time to save lives.
Privately, he was approached by a man who didn't exist and asked to do a job that didn't exist. He is still doing that job aboard the Endeavor.
Appearance
Michael is a short, lean man with close cropped hair and clean shaven face, and typically moves a lot, fidgeting and burning nervous energy. If it wasn't for that, he might fade into the woodwork altogether.
Personality
Michael is mostly an easy going guy, soft spoken and unobtrusive, but he can be firm and unyielding when it comes to dispensing his medical expertise.
