Maj-Britt Christensen

Summary

Prior to my internship here at the UWA Oceans Institute &  the School of Plant Biology, I have had a year and a half at the CPH-Business Laboratory and Environment School in Denmark, where I have had both theory and laboratory work. Some of the topics were microbiology, biotechnology, protein purification and chemical synthesis.

For my internship, here at the Wernberg lab, I would like to improve my skills in the laboratory. I would like to learn about the workplace safety, work environment in a top marine laboratory, and instrumental techniques with a focus on the analysis of seaweed.
