What do you do?
I started my career by taking a foundation course before starting my degree in biomedical science. Whilst studying, I used my initiative and volunteered in the microbiology department at my local hospital. I knew that working in biomedical science was something I wanted to do but I wanted to get some experience before making a final decision.
I now work at the Pennine Acute Hospitals NHS Trust. I knew all along that I wanted to do something that makes a difference and betters the lives of others and I’m now able to help people, using scientific methods and the skills I’ve gained.
I was supported to complete an MSc. The research I did for this contributed to improving the investigations we carry out on patients.
