Hello! I’m Victoria, a Research Officer based in Hobart with a Master’s degree in Laboratory Medicine. My background is rooted in medical science, with a particular passion for haematology—the study of blood and its disorders. While my current role focuses on data collection, I continue to practise blood film morphology in my spare time and share this knowledge through science outreach with the Young Tassie Scientists program. I love the practical applications of blood film analysis and the vital role blood plays in keeping us healthy.

About the BEAKER STREET ROVING SCIENTIST PROGRAM
Each August, hundreds of Roving Scientists descend upon Hobart, filling up pubs and chatting to strangers as part of Beaker Street Festival. Discover a new world down the lens of microscope, and joining the least-boring bar conversations you’ve ever heard and these free (the chats – not the drinks) events.
For Scientists, Beaker Street’s Roving Scientist Program offers an excellent outreach, professional development, and networking opportunity. It’s the nerdiest and funnest way to share your research with the public, expand your network, and be inspired by leaders in all sectors of science and science communication.
