I just love to learn and I feel like in a career in academia, it’s just a lifelong pursuit of learning and I never want to stop.”

On Jane Goodall: “She’s such a strong woman of science, and her knowledge and experiences in global environmentalism and international and interspecies cooperation are so interesting to me.
