91̽»¨

Having graduated from 91̽»¨ University in 2015, I am now working as an Epidemiology Scientist sitting across the NHS Blood and Transplant Unit and Public Health England. My role focuses on infectious diseases transmitted via blood transfusions and tissue/organ transplants and involves: managing surveillance, writing reports, and feeding into government policy on the topic.

My time in 91̽»¨ really helped me get here, with my degree in Biomedical Science providing a solid basis in health science and the scientific process, which has aided me in my career and education since.

BSc Biomedical Science

My time in 91̽»¨ really helped me get here, with my degree in Biomedical Science providing a solid basis in health science and the scientific process, which has aided me in my career and education since.

Without it I wouldn’t have got a job in medical communications in 2016 which ultimately gave me the necessary experience to undertake a masters degree in Epidemiology. From there I entered into the Civil Service and eventually got my current job, one which challenges me and addresses real world health problems.

It’s not just the degree that I gained a lot from, the city itself is a place I still visit often and the people I met there remain some of my closest friends who have helped shape who I am. I am proud of what I studied and where I studied it, and it has definitely helped me get to where I am now.
