I am a Systems and Synthetic Biology graduate in Cambridge, currently working in Plant Science. I am interested in sustainability and the social issues associated with science. I started this website to share what I learnt while searching for subjects I care about. Most of the articles will be about the biochemistry of cool animals, society/social justice in science, and how politics shapes how science is done.
If you want to talk more about it or collaborate on some projects, feel free to reach out.
