I have been a research life scientist for over 40 years, working on cell biology, particularly what controls the process of cell division. But I have also been an amateur astronomer, very much the amateur who all my life has enjoyed observing the beauty of the heavens. In fact it was astronomy that first started my interest in science at the age of nine years. In my talk I will share my experiences as a professional life scientist researcher and amateur astronomer.

Note that this bonus meeting is on the third Friday of the month.
