Meet Our PhD Fellows: Sharing Their Passion for Science

Our EpiSeedLink PhD students are stepping in front of the camera to share their passion for science and give you a glimpse into their research within the project

Training in Science Communication
As part of their training in science communication and public engagement, our EpiSeedLink PhD students are creating short videos to present their research and key scientific topics from the project.

Video Series
These videos will be posted every two weeks on EpiSeedLink’s social media channels, giving the public a front-row view of the research questions and discoveries of the next generation of scientists.

First Video Spotlight
The first video features Maira Marins Dourado, PhD student at the University of Amsterdam, who explores:
“Identifying cis-regulatory elements associated with drought stress in canola"
