Ruben Meerman decided to study physics at school in an attempt to sit next to a hot girl. Sadly, this didn't work, but it was the beginning of another beautiful relationship with science! Ruben did a Bachelor of Applied Science in Physics at Queensland University of Technology and worked for a while in an optical lab. Things started to head in a different direction when he was accepted into the Graduate Diploma in Science Communication at the Australian National University. Ruben is a regular on the ABCs ROLLERCOASTER and also CATALYST.
