Meg is a second year PhD student investigating the immune responses to vaccination against an intestinal disease in pigs. If she can find immune cells in the pig that are linked to vaccine protection then it might be possible to use these in the pig industry to determine whether vaccinated pigs are protected against future infection.
I was born... in the baby factory in Melbourne- that's right, I'm not a two headed Tasmanian
At school I… got picked on for being rosey in the cheeks, apparently I looked like a tomato
My first relationship was... with the floor, I couldn't walk until i was 3 so I polished the floor with my bum
Friends say I'm... feral because I could happily go a week or two without a shower, and showering when you go camping is sacrilege in my books!!
If I wasn't me I'd like to be... one of those hot looking tv presenters who gets to travel to cool places for free.
At the moment I'm reading... a quirky book about horsie people.
My worst job was... cleaning old people's toilets!!
At the moment I'm... playing with lots of poo, blood and intestines- it's fun, really!
... which is interesting because... you can find out a lot of information about someone (pigs) from their poo!
