My future plans involve working in a lab to progress research in genetic diseases that affect the immune system. This comes from a place of personal interest because I had a chronic genetic disease but am now cured and wish to help on this front by getting into research.

James
University of Warwick
Biochemistry (MBio)
I studied Biology, chemistry, maths and french for A levels and chose to do biochemistry at Warwick because of the opportunity to complete a paid research placement and complete your masters at the same time. I also love the campus vibes and felt very at home when I first visited.
I am passionate about research, especially in the field of antimicrobial resistance. In the summer I will be conducting a research project using AlphaFold to model the Enzymes involved in the production of a gram-negative enterobacterial cell surface protein called the O-antigen polysaccharide. The aim of the research is to build more accurate 3D models of the enzymes involved and test different ligands to see if they can act as inhibitors. These can then be tested for the ability to form novel antibiotics.
My career ambitions are not that clear to me yet. After my Industrial Masters I would I may want to go into a research role. However, I also have a passion for finance, so I am currently gaining experience in this industry alongside my degree so to have as many options as possible for the future.

Abhishek
University of Strathclyde
MSc Forensic Science
Hey there! I’m a doctor who spent six incredible years in Ukraine studying medicine. During my medical studies, I found myself completely fascinated by forensic medicine classes, where science meets investigation. That interest slowly grew into a passion for connecting medical and forensic knowledge to do something meaningful, research that can both save lives and help catch culprits (whether that culprit is a disease or a criminal!).
Even though I’m not particularly interested in pursuing licensing exams or working in clinical practice, I’ve always been passionate about the subject and staying connected to it and its constant evolution is really important to me, it’s still a big part of who I am; what excites me more is pathbreaking research and discovery. My goal is to become a leading researcher in this field, contributing to work that bridges the gap between medicine and forensics.
If you’re curious about studying abroad, or just want to chat about science, or life as a student, feel free to reach out! I’d be more than happy to connect and share my experiences.
