After school, I went to university for nine years,

where I studied...

Page 11: I'm a professor

...mathematical physics...

Page 12: I'm a professor

...applied mathematics...

Page 13: I'm a professor

...and more mathematical physics

Page 14: I'm a professor

Now I'm a professor...

Page 15: I'm a professor

...at ORU...

Page 22: I'm a professor

...go to meetings...

Page 23: I'm a professor

...visit cool places...

Page 24: I'm a professor

...and do research...

Page 25: I'm a professor

...which is fun

Page 26: I'm a professor

As part of my research...

Page 27: I'm a professor

...I work with other scientists...

Page 28: I'm a professor

...from around the world...

Page 29: I'm a professor

...measuring solubility...

Page 30: I'm a professor

...so we can make anti-malarial compounds

cheaply and efficiently

Page 31: I'm a professor

We collaborate with other scientists...

Page 32: I'm a professor

...from around the world, online...

Page 33: I'm a professor

...and at conferences...

me

Page 34: I'm a professor

...working together to help solve an important
