Profile Summary

Scientist with more than 10 years’ experience in academic research in plant physiology and plant molecular biology, with some expertise in microbiology and food industry. Little supervision during my thesis, so I made a lot of self-learning about experiment design, literature search and data analysis. Also, as online community manager and blog manager of a scientific association in the UK I have excellent skills for writing, editing and event organisation.
