PhD Candidate
University of British Columbia, Canada
I completed my BSc from the University of Waterloo with a major in Biomedical Sciences and minor in Gerontology. My passion for human reproduction, combined with an interest in the physiological and biochemical aspects of nutrition and health led me to pursue my PhD in Reproductive and Developmental Sciences at the University of British Columbia with a focus on human nutrition. My research seeks to investigate sulfur amino acid requirements during pregnancy, highlighting the role of methionine in the one-carbon metabolism cycle and how this biochemical pathway serves as a conduit between parental environment (diet) and the regulation of early development.
