The winner of the 2018 Universitas 21 3MT® (Three Minute Thesis) People’s Choice award was UCD's Roshaida Abdul Wahab. A PhD student in the Institute of Food and Health, Roshaida's research, The Truth, the Whole Truth and Nothing but the Truth, focuses on dietary biomarkers, a new method of capturing people’s dietary intake using a metabolomics approach. These biomarkers offer a more objective measure of people's diet and have a potential to give a huge impact on the connections between diet, health & diseases.

Speaking about her win, Roshaida said, “Winning the U21 3MT® People’s Choice Award will give me the opportunity to not only convey my research to the international scientific community but most importantly, to the global public.”
