Student details

I am a student. According to various checks, I am female. (this has not been confirmed by a DNA test so as yet is still hearsay)

My Degree

I am in my third (last) year of a BSc in BioMedical Science. I specialise in Cancer and Reproductive Biology with an emphasis on Genetics.

Studentships

In 2009/2010 Summer Period I did a summer scholarship with the Cardiac Research Team in the Physiology Department of the Faculty of Medical and Health Sciences. I created a 3D image of the myocardial sleeve of the left atria which extends over the pulmonary vein. This is where most atrial arrhythmias start. Atrial arrhythmias are the main cause of strokes (they create blood clots which travel to the brain and become lodged there). It was a very rewarding experience.

This year I have accepted a summer scholarship in the Obstetrics and Gynaecology Department of the Faculty of Medical and Health Sciences. This is my project: [1]. This is more within my research interests and I am very excited to be taking it.

My Peers

Chris is also in many of my classes. This is his (not-so-good) wiki page: User:Cwal132 (internal link)
