Biography

Hi everyone! I'm Roman, a postdoc in the Roberts lab. I am Canadian and did my PhD at the University of Victoria, BC, Canada. I am a member of the Diversity, Equity and Inclusion committee in the department here. As a hobby I love experimenting outside the lab by learning how different things are made (bread, ice cream, soap etc), currently mastering knitting.
