Elena Mazlan

Elena Mazlan is passionate in science writing. Working as a Science Officer at the National Science Center (PSN) gives her plenty of opportunities to get involve with the public, and The Petri Dish opens the door for her to communicate and share her experience through writing. Covering science news is her niche. She is actively involved in creating awareness of science communication through channels like society, clubs and being in a publication team in a government agency.  To her, communication is a medium to disseminate knowledge to the people and acts as way to give back to the community. She lives with the motto that the more you give to the society, the more you get from them.

Jolene Anthony Dass

Jolene Anthony Dass is a curious and free-spirited, eager to explore and uncover the complex dynamics of the world and everything in it. Science intrigues her  because it explains the “why” behind those seen and unseen. The more she understands, the more she’s in awe. Writing is one way for her to express this fascination as she loves matching words to the emotions when she understands an interesting phenomenon.

Tan Hui Woon

Tan Hui Woon, otherwise also known as Nicole. She is a Biomedical Science graduate and instead of saying that she is an aspiring young scientist, she is much more preferred to be known as a ‘science communicator’. Like every art, science is also a beautiful master piece and to simplify this complex art is what Nicole aims to deliver. She believes that being a science communicator is just as important as being a scientist so that the public can know what the ‘geek in the lab coat’ is up to. Knowledge should be shared and made known to all and last but not least, do know that science can be FUN too!
