And a wonderful science communicator who adds her personal flair to the joys and beauty of science. We discussed her early years growing up in the #UK, her education and interests, what got her fascinated with lasers and physics, and what it's like being a woman in physics, specifically, a woman with a Middle Eastern/North African background. Meriame opens up to Mathew about personal challenges, experiences, and triumphs she has had and encountered along her journey and what has propelled her ever forward.
