Question: how long have you been an engineer?

Daniel Morse answered on 10 Mar 2017:

About 2 years!

I fell into an opportunity I had while doing my PhD. I used some tissue models to infect and have a look at the cell responses, and damage caused by my infection, and because they’re so expensive, I wanted to make my own.

I then wanted to make a more complex model, and collaborated with and spent some time with a group in Sheffield who taught me how to do it, and since then I’ve been using my own engineered models. Its great because I learnt a lot of skills in a short amount of time, which will really benefit me in the future Im sure!
