This week, to celebrate International Women's Day on Sunday, we chat with one of Oxford's leading biologists Prof. Alison Woollard. She talks to us about her fascinating research in which she uses microscopic nematode worms to study development and ageing, and what it's like to work in a Nobel Prize winning lab.  Prof. Woollard didn't set out to become a biologist, she tells us why you should follow your dreams and not be afraid to take chances in your career!
