Interview with musician and engineer Michelle Oyen

by Eva Amsen

Michelle Oyen is a lecturer in bioengineering at Cambridge University. You may have come across her name earlier this year, when this video about her lab’s Lego robots was doing the rounds, or in the subsequent Wired article. She’s also a musician (from a very musical family), and almost did a double major in music and engineering, so I asked her some questions about her science/music career. Here are five minutes from our conversation.
