An explorer at heart, a poetry enthusiast and a scientist in the making. As a PhD student at Rice University, I spend most of time studying early stages of human development. Science, for me, is the art of solving puzzles of nature. An art, which presents an intellectual challenge and offers a supreme source of joy. I’m here to share the joy of doing science through the written word.
