Jianhong(Sandy) Sun
About Me:
Hi there! Iโm a second-year PhD student at the University of Bath. Being a PhD student is a little different from regular school because I donโt attend lectures or take exams. Instead, I spend my time researching exciting topics as part of my PhD project! My research is about supply chain challenges in cutting-edge industries, like cultivated meat (you might have heard it called lab-grown meat). Iโm also part of a big project called cellular agriculture , where I work alongside brilliant scientists and researchers from different fields.
I live in Bath with my family, including my 9-year-old daughter. When Iโm not working, I love traveling and drinking black coffee. Iโm a SCA certified home brewer and barista, so I always start my day with a great cup of black coffee !
