Hi, I’m Michelle! I’m primarily on Instagram and Twitter where I communicate and illustrate science topics while highlighting notable women in STEM. I recently completed my MSc in Nutritional Sciences and my BSc in Biology with a minor in Nutrition. I studied the gut microbiome and how it interacts with flaxseeds in diet. And now I work as a translational Research Technologist in a lab specialized in pediatric brain tumours.
