Hasini Wanigasinghe BSc
Hello! I'm a passionate food science graduate wrapping up my studies in the Department of Food and Bioproduct Sciences, and joining the Dept of Biology September, 2025. My academic journey has been a delightful exploration of the intricate chemistry and biology that transforms raw ingredients into the nourishment we cherish daily. Beyond the laboratory's precision and scholarly articles, I find balance through the rhythmic flow of poetry and the unconditional companionship of dogs, my most attentive audience when testing new verses. I'm absolutely elated to be joining Teagen's prestigious lab in September 2025 to investigate the wonders of sporopollenin. The promising connections between this remarkable compound and natural science kindle my curiosity and imagination. I'm counting the moments until I can contribute my perspective to the groundbreaking research underway and collaborate with the exceptional team of scientists. This upcoming chapter represents the perfect fusion of my scientific passion and creative spirit!
