Munir Al-Hussaini

Medical Student

Everything in our life has to do with science. Since my early education I have been fascinated by biological sciences and technology. And I used to believe that “Everything in our life has to do with science”; and that makes life more interesting. However, I was more into human biology than any other branch; that’s why I chose medicine as my favorite and future career to understand and deal with the health of the most complicated biological system on earth. Yet, I truly believe that no one can separate the lab from the hospital because what is discovered in the lab is the cornerstone for the progress made in medicine. I hope one day I will be able to participate in the development of both sciences.

Brad Querl

BSc (Hons) Medicinal Plant Science

Doing my honours in Medicinal Plant Science, I seem to hear a lot of jokes about weed. Seems that it is the first thing on people’s mind oddly enough. I am passionate about plants - not too passionate about smoking them, but each to their own I guess. Long story short, I am a botanist that may enjoy lifting weights a little too much, and let’s not even get into the modelling story...

Hobbies and interests: Bodybuilding, fishing, skateboarding, reading, gardening.

Bernard Smit

Ominous organisms, those that hide in plain sight but still have an unmissable affect, interests me. Especially those of who`s genetic code can be engineered to produce a profound and beneficial quality. I enjoy playing in our university`s orchestra and the engineering of robotics.

Hobbies and interests: Cycling, orchestra, Lego, science.
