Confessions: I Become a Mad Scientist When I’m Hungry.

This shop has been compensated by Collective Bias, Inc. and its advertiser. All opinions are mine alone. #WhenImHungry #CollectiveBias I love doing science. I love being able to discover new things, and answer unanswered questions. I think what I love most about science it the possibility of making new discoveries that can benefit the entire world.
