I love technology, be it as simple as a 3D printer and a laser cutter or as complex as a single-pixel camera or an electron microscope. The CDT-ISM gave me the opportunity to come into direct contact with these technologies and many more, under the expert supervision of world-leading experts. Every day is revelatory, knowledge keeps pouring in, and I am looking forward to the next experiment!
