Hi, I’m Harshini Murugan, a biotechnology student with a curious mind and a hands-on approach to learning. I enjoy translating complex ideas into practical projects, whether in the lab, on a volunteer initiative, or in a cooking-and-baking club I founded to foster community and well-being. My path has taken me from a neuroscience internship in Basel to leadership roles in Switzerland, and now I’m pursuing a BSc in Biotechnology at the University of Nottingham. I’m excited to blend science, design, and collaboration in my next opportunity.
