Hey everyone! My name is Cassiano and, since August 2019, I am pursuing a Master’s of Geo-information Science and Earth Observation at the University of Twente. I was born and raised in Castro, a small town (in the Brazilian context, because it is almost the size of Enschede) in Southern Brazil that is home of a tiny Dutch village (Castrolanda), but in 2013 I moved to Curitiba to undertake a Bachelor of Civil Engineering, from which I graduated last year.

Hello! My name is Akash Basu and I am currently a First Year Masters student of Biomedical Engineering. Being born into a family consisting of solely doctors, I was always an odd apple. Although I enjoyed the medical sciences I have always had a strong love towards numbers and mathematics. In India people either do an engineering course or become a doctor but I wanted something more, something out of the box so I decided why not merge the two fields altogether! That’s when I landed into the beautiful world of biomedical engineering and all its endless possibilities.
