Mareike Smolka has won the Maastricht Young Academy’s (MYA) ‘bake your research’ contest. Lea Beiermann has received the runner-up prize.
MYA challenged researchers at UM to make an edible version of their research.
Mareike made cookies that represent the contemplative science she researches. She was interviewed by Observant about the cookies she baked.
Lea made microscope slide biscuits, inspired by nineteenth-century slides by the Irish microscopist Mary Ward.
