WORKSHOP FACILITATOR
Currently in my final year of a Master of Science (Research) in Molecular & Cellular Biology, where I am studying the use of a novel antioxidant enzyme to improve the efficiency of animal reproductive technologies. Discovering new knowledge that cannot be seen with the naked eye is the reason I love science!
