A little about him: Craig was born in Mandeville, Jamaica (Xaymaca- Land of wood and water). During high school, his path was undecided- divided between his love of science and his passion for languages. After high school, he went to the University of the West Indies where he completed medical school while involved in the social and cultural life of the university as a language ambassador. After graduating, he worked as a physician in central Jamaica for three years, before leaving to Canada to pursue kidney research at Â鶹AV. His research revolves around a special protein kinase called SLK and its effects on kidney filtration. When he is not in the lab, Craig devotes time (and attention) to his cat, Bree, as well as spending time with his friends, learning other languages, and enjoys the seasonal sports.
Let's Talk Science is a national, not-for-profit organization dedicated to providing "hands-on, minds-on" opportunities to engage youth in STEM. The  is a volunteer-based group of graduate and undergraduate students from a wide range of faculties at Â鶹AV.Â
