    another planet
     

    Despite having completed a degree in genetics, it took working with great white sharks in South Africa for Sahan Jayasinghe to realise that marine biology was his real passion.

    Sahan was blown away by the opportunities and personal guidance from lecturers at the Institute of Marine and Antarctic Science (IMAS). He has become an astrobiologist where, using his knowledge of sea ice, he is exploring the possibility of life on Jupiter’s frozen moons.
