Stevie is a PhD student at the University of Edinburgh. Her research focusses on understanding the epigenetic mechanisms that underlie an unusual type of reproduction called Paternal Genome Elimination found in insects.
She undertook a three-month internship with The Naked Scientists to learn about the world of science communication and get the opportunity to experience it first hand!
She enjoys fitness (particularly martial arts and pilates) and eating delicious food - which, in theory, allows for a nicely balanced lifestyle.
