Expertise: Nuclear Security and Public Health
Originally from the Philippine islands, Marylin holds an undergraduate degree from the University of Manitoba in Canada, with a Major in Biochemistry and a Minor in Classics. During her undergraduate studies, she mainly focused on Materials Chemistry, but held an active interest in Nuclear Physics. She is currently a Master of Public Health candidate at the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine in the UK, writing her dissertation on “The Analysis of the Benefits and Risks of Nuclear Energy” with policy implications for international governing bodies particularly the IPCC, WHO and IAEA. She has recently taken two short courses regarding Modern Warfare and Middle East Issues at the University of Oxford, slowly transitioning from the arena of Public Health to Nuclear Security with an emphasis on nuclear weapons. When she’s not tackling issues on the Ebola crises or Iran’s nuclear energy deal, Marylin fuels her creative juices as a freelance Graphic Designer.
