Where could a STEM career take you? Studied STEM subjects at school > Electrical Engineering degree > Researcher and entrepreneur Changing the face of healthcare with wearable technology Working on technology with the potential to change the face of healthcare wouldn’t seem like the obvious direction for a telecommunications engineer, but Samy proves that skills combined with passion and creativity can answer questions the world has been asking for years. Samy’s desire to understand how things work has seen her build robots, teach herself to code and win many prestigious awards. One of her next projects is designing a network of sensors for the human body that communicate in a similar way to swarms of fireflies that all light up in unison. She imagines a world where we can detect and prevent chronic diseases and illnesses in a low-cost and timely manner, helping humans live healthier for longer, and she believes that when we harness the skills developed from STEM we have the power to create that world. csiro.au/careers
