Summary
A 2nd-year Biomedical Science student at Cardiff University with a strong academic focus on physiology, developmental and stem cell biology, and concepts of disease. Through these modules, I have gained an understanding of human physiological systems, the molecular mechanisms governing development, and the pathophysiology of diseases. Experienced in foundational laboratory techniques such as cell culture, immunohistochemistry, and molecular analysis, with practical exposure to experimental design and data analysis using tools like R. My studies have equipped me with the ability to critically evaluate scientific literature and apply theoretical knowledge to practical challenges in biomedicine. I am currently seeking more opportunities to further develop my technical and research skills and gain practical experience in a professional scientific setting.
