Nathan Chen Fan Thread #2

Another upcoming YTS seminar. Location TBA

Nathan's mentor providing overview of Nathan's group presentation at upcoming medical conference.

Unearthed photos from 2014 Jr Worlds, where Nathan finished 3rd.
 
Nathan was at the Bell Centre in Montreal on Saturday. JSF shared this photo of him with Kaori:
 
Nathan will be pursing a post-baccalaureate pre-med program at Goucher College outside of Baltimore.
This news has since been confirmed in the latest issue of SKATING magazine, IIRC.

Off-topic, sort of - Joonsoo Kim is in his first year of medical school at Johns Hopkins and can be seen briefly in this ISU video ;):
 
Nathan was busy at two conferences on opposite sides of the country this past weekend. One in Atlanta and one in San Diego.

San Diego:
Nathan also visited the Illumina company's HQ in San Diego

The Ice put out a nice statement regarding Nathan's absence from this year's show.

This was just uploaded to the Toyota Times YT channel but not sure if some of the footage has ever been seen before.


Tonight is the annual Figure Skating in Harlem Gala. The flyer says guests will include members of the Olympic Gold Medal winning team so perhaps Nathan may show up.
 
Nathan will be pursuing a post-baccalaureate pre-med program at Goucher College outside of Baltimore. Is Johns Hopkins Medical School in his future?

Goucher and Bryn Mawr have two of the top post-bac pre-med programs available. I don't imagine that Goucher's location has any influence on JHU's med school admission decisions, but it might well influence students in the post-bac program to either apply or not apply based on whether they like the med school option at JHU.

Yes, he was there - as were Alexa, Madi & Evan -

An encounter yesterday (she is a NYC-based composer & pianist who has figure skating connections): https://twitter.com/kellymoran/status/1786534410512208075
I just met Olympic Champion @nathanwchen on the street in NYC! I have watched him skate for so many years and cried when he won the Olympics! What a surreal moment to spot him in public - I turned into a rambling fangirl with zero chill.
My life is now complete! ⛸️
I see fans in Asia are wishing a Happy 25th Birthday (May 5) to Nathan. :)

ETA - here's one (video tribute): https://twitter.com/NathansupportTM/status/1786944969422598517
