Hi everyone! I am Michaela and I come from Bulgaria (wow, that’s exotic!). I am particularly interested in red biology (that is, all the organelles and processes in the cell) and I am studying for a degree in Molecular Biology. As an Academic Events Rep of Biosoc I will try to organise all sorts of interesting lectures about things I hope you guys would like to hear about. So don’t hesitate to get in touch and share your talk wishes! Besides, I love a biology chat of any sort at any time! Also, I am that good person who would love to help a struggling first year with the material.
