Description

At school, Professor Kate Schroder had little interest in biology. It took a couple of subjects at uni to ignite her passion for microbiology and how understanding it can change the world. A self-professed sleuth – and accidental graphic designer -, Kate is unlocking the key to curing a myriad of diseases.
