I absolutely love learning and have a passion for science and understanding how this incredible world works!<\/p>\n<p>If you are wondering what LIYSF is, the London International Youth Science Forum is a gathering of hundreds of youths (ages 16-21) from all over the world to attend lectures from leading scientists, meet with fellow young scientists from across the globe, tour scientific establishments, and so much more! It&#8217;s going to be a phenomenal experience, chalk full of people, places, and science. \u00a0If you would like more info, visit <a href=\"http:\/\/www.liysf.org.uk\/\">www.liysf.org.uk<\/a><\/p>\n<p>I am very excited to have been selected by UFV to represent our university, as well as our country at this magnificent event!
