Carlos Edriel Poquiz Yulo (born February 16, 2000) is a Filipino artistic gymnast. He is the 2024 Olympic gold medalist at the floor exercise and vault events. He is the first Filipino and the first male Southeast Asian gymnast to medal at the World Artistic Gymnastics Championships with his floor exercise bronze medal finish in 2018, as well as the first Filipino and Southeast Asian to achieve a gold medal finish for the same criteria in 2019 at the same event. With multiple medals on the international stage, Yulo is the second person to win an Olympic gold medal for the Philippines, the first person to win multiple Olympic gold medals for the country, and the first Southeast Asian athlete to win multiple gold medals at the Olympic Games.
Yulo is a two-time Olympic champion; a six-time world championship medalist, winning two golds, two silvers, and two bronzes; a ten-time Asian champion; and a nine-time SEA Games champion. He is noted for his short stature compared to other male gymnasts, his precision in form, and the difficulty of his routines, especially in the floor exercise, vault, and parallel bars.
Early life and education
Carlos Edriel Poquiz Yulo was born on February 16, 2000[2] to Mark Andrew Yulo, a travel agent liaison, and Angelica Yulo (née Poquiz), a homemaker,[3][4][5] in Manila, Philippines.[6] His maternal grandmother is Angelita Poquiz, and he lived along Leveriza Street, Malate.[7][8] He is the second of four siblings. His older sister, Joriel, is a member of the National University Pep Squad, and his younger siblings, Karl Jahrel Eldrew and Elaiza Andriel, are also gymnasts.[9][10] Yulo grew up watching Filipino gymnasts train and compete at the Rizal Memorial Sports Complex in Malate.[11] Yulo started training for gymnastics when he was seven years old, when his grandfather, Rodrigo Frisco,[12] saw him tumbling at a local playground and brought him to the Gymnastics Association of the Philippines (GAP) for training.[13] He would also train at the Club Gymnastica in Kapitolyo, Pasig in his early years.[14]
In 2016, Yulo accepted an offer by the Japan Olympic Association to train in Japan under a scholarship program.[17] After moving to Japan, Yulo continued his education at Teikyo University in Itabashi, Tokyo, and graduated in 2022 with an associated degree in literature.[18]

Yulo started competing in 2008,[13] and joined his first Palarong Pambansa in 2009 in Tacloban, Leyte. On May 1, he was part of the National Capital Region's gold medal winning elementary team, finishing with a score of 79.35 and placed fifth in the individual all-around with a score of 26.15.[19] The following day, he won the silver medal in the floor exercise, with a score of 13.325 with Marc Capistrano of Calabarzon taking first.[20] Yulo stated that his second and fifth place finishes encouraged him to train harder for his next Palarong Pambansa.[13]

He won gold in the individual all-around and floor exercise,[5] and got bronze in the vault.[21] He was also part of the men's team, where they placed fifth.[22] The following year, he competed in the same competition in Dapitan, Zamboanga del Norte.

The training served as a bid for them to qualify for the 2014 Youth Olympics in Nanjing, China.[26]
In 2013, Yulo competed in his last Palarong Pambansa, which was held in Dumaguete City, Negros Oriental. He won golds in the team event, individual all-around, and floor exercise, and took a silver in the vault behind Martoni Abana.[27][28] In the same year, Yulo met his eventual coach, Munehiro Kugimiya, when Japanese trainers went to the Philippines to help train the national team.[29]
In 2016, Kugimiya became Yulo's coach, and the MVP Sports Foundation started extending financial aid to his career the following year.[34] He also received a scholarship from the International Gymnastics Federation to fund his move to Japan.[35]
Yulo won five medals at the 2016 Pacific Rim Championships, gold on floor exercise and vault, silver on the still rings and parallel bars, and bronze in the all-around.[36] Days before the 2017 Junior Asian Championships, he twisted his left ankle while training on the floor exercise. Despite the injury, he still competed, but he was limited to the still rings, pommel horse, and parallel bars. He qualified for the parallel bars final and won the gold medal.[37] He only competed on the vault and floor exercise at the 2017 International Junior Competition because of a shoulder injury. He won the gold medal in the vault final and the silver medal in the floor exercise final.[38]

Model of protein allosteric regulation Not to be confused with Morphine. Proteins that function as morpheeins are illustrated using a dice analogy where one dice can morph into two different shapes, cubic and tetrahedral. The illustrated assemblies apply a rule that the dice face with one spot must contact the dice face with four spots. To satisfy the rule for each dice in an assembly, the cubic dice can only form a tetramer and the tetrahedral dice can only assemble to a pentamer. This is an...
