Medical Sciences, Newcastle University

Ellie
Zoology, Bristol University
“I was given a lot of independence which suited me despite the steep learning curve it brought — one evening I left the lab at 10:30 pm because I severely underestimated how long transferring individual flies to vials would take!”
