“Because a lot of my work is concerned with bio-molecules, it was a perfect fit with the priorities of the VLSCI. It was such a big draw card for me to come and be able to use this facility. I saw this as a chance to really invigorate my existing research program and begin to grow my research in a number of directions.”
