The start of my science blog


I have now finished my undergraduate degree in Biomedical Sciences at the University of Southampton. I was absolutely ecstatic to achieve a 2.1 after working my socks off for three years!

What I love about science is the passion with which researchers describe their work, whether it be on the statistical significance of different algae populations within a pond or the shape of a macroscopic protein. The way to a scientists heart is through asking them about their work, just make sure you don't have anywhere to be for a few hours!

From my experience, the general public are also interested in the world of science but are often put off or scared away by the 'jargon' that is so frequently and casually passed around the scientific community.

Therefore this blog will hopefully help me to stay up to date with current interesting science developments whilst inviting the general public into this fascinating world of exploration, discovery and growth!
