Maria Belen Zanoni
Postdoctoral researcher. PhD & B.Sc. in Biological Sciences from Universidad de Buenos Aires (Argentina). I’m interested in how our sense of knowing (or not knowing) guides what we believe and do. I co-host Dato Encerrado, my excuse to tell stories about experiments I never have time to read in the lab.
