Organic Chemist, PhD

I am a PhD student in Japan at the Okinawa Institute of Science & Technology (OIST). I am an organic chemist, studying chemical reactions, properties and mechanisms. My job is a combination of being an architect and a chef. I think of the complex path to make my molecules, like how an architect draws plans for a building, and then for each step in the assembly process, I follow a procedure like how a chef cooks a recipe.
I have a diverse range of interests, including Science Communications, Public Speaking, Health, and Travel.

Structural Biologist, PhD

I’m a PhD student at the University of Cambridge. My passion is structural biology – I’m a firm believer in seeing is believing! We determine the 3D coordinates of all the atoms in a protein; that’s usually over 10,000 atoms! The structures we solve give a lot of insight into their function, like figuring out how a machine works. We can even manipulate these machines, changing their functions or tweaking them using drugs. In my spare time, I like writing on my blog (https://thiscomplexlife.wordpress.com/), working out, attempting new recipes, or Netflix chilling.
