Hi! Welcome to my Web site, A Reformed Baptist's Disk. My name is Mark Smith. My family and I are residents of the suburb of Auburn in Sydney , Australia. We attend Stanmore Baptist Church. We also Homeschool our children (unusual here in Australia). Mark works at the Westmead Millennium Institute, a Medical Research Institute attached to Westmead Hospital.
I am not a computer programmer, but a scientist by training. I have had 15yr research experience in the Biochemistry Department at the University of Sydney. Subsequent to this I have been at the Westmead Millennium Institute at Westmead Hospital in science management positions since 1997.
