Profile Summary

The focus of my Ph.D. dissertation (in Biochemistry Molecular Biology and Biophysics; University of Minnesota, USA), was on the role of DNA replication and repair proteins in carcinogenesis, either spontaneously or due to inherited mutations. I am currently pursuing my passion for cancer research as a Post doctoral fellow at the de Duve Institute, Brussels, Belgium. I run my own science blog that aims to bridge the communication gap between scientists and general public. I am also a regular contributor to other science communication forums.
