Wienke Van Bouchaute

As an aspiring engineer currently pursuing a master's degree in Bioscience Engineering, my academic journey revolves around the fusion of biological sciences and engineering principles. Immersed in this dynamic field, I have developed an interest in space biology and space exploration, inspired by the potential for groundbreaking discoveries at the intersection of life sciences and outer space.

My expertise lies in gene technology, microbiology, molecular and enzyme biotechnology, areas where I have honed my skills through rigorous coursework and hands-on laboratory experiences. These technical proficiencies serve as the foundation for my enthusiasm to contribute to the astrobiology and space bioprocess engineering field.
In addition to my academic pursuits, I dedicate my free time to serving as a science tutor, where I mentor and guide students in mathematics, chemistry, and physics. This commitment to education reflects my belief in the power of knowledge-sharing and nurturing the next generation of scientific minds.

Beyond the realm of academia, I am driven by a passion for music. As the front-singer and multi-instrumentalist of the band 'Semper Pie,' you can find me performing on stages in Belgium.

Worked on a NASA- CUBES project for synthetic biology at the University of Florida. Founded Science for kids. Tutored undergrad and highschool students for 5 years.

Master's in Bioscience engineering, specialization in biochemistry and biotechnology
