Fanni Daniella Szakal

Fanni got her BSc in Genetics from the University of Edinburgh and continued on to an MSc in Marine Biology at the University of Amsterdam. After some years of research covering many organisms from yeast to dolphins, she decided to turn towards communicating science. She is fascinated by epigenetics, the magic link between genetics and the environment. In her free time, she travels when she can, hiking in the mountains and climbing as many rocks as possible.
