I have always been interested in biology, so I went to uni for studying Biotechnology. However, when I was 18, I was hospitalised for appendicitis. I shared my room with a patient suffering from Alzheimer disease. Spending time with her made me realise how devastating this disease is and how difficult the life of its family was. I decided that I would have to spend my future career in understanding the brain and helping people who suffer from neurological disorders!
