Evelyn Medawar is a neuroscientist and biologist by training with the mission to understand how we make decisions and what leads us to choose certain food items. In particular, she wants to find out how the gut communicates with the brain, to see whether what we eat really shapes who we are. The interplay between our gut microbes and our cognitive center is only about to be investigated by researchers.

Besides her several PhD studies, she is keen to envision broader topics and other fields, such as sustainability in general and in science, mindfulness and physioholistic approaches to improve well-being.
