Hi there. I am Paddy and I live in the wonderful art-filled city of Norwich. Its amazing how compact and small Norwich is, given its a county capital. I am married to Sowmya and we have an amazing three and half-year old crumpet named Bhoomi. We love spending time with other families and friends and take time out to blend in with local interest-based communities in and around Norwich.
We are also foodies, enjoy nature and the natural world, have a great deal of respect for the natural processes and other species which are responsible for producing the food we eat. A great fan of biodiversity – and social/cultural diversity without which our ecosystems and societies would be boring and unstable.
I love interacting with different kinds of people at different stages of their careers. So, I look forward to getting to know you all and hopefully answer some of your cheeky and not-so-cheeky questions.

What I'd do with the prize money:
I would use the prize money for supporting frameworks which promote engagements between scientists and stakeholders in the society. In addition, I would also spend some of the money on conducting surveys about how science needs to be conducted ? Where should the government put the money in ?
