Throughout my studies I have always had very broad interests. I completed my bachelor in Biomedical Sciences with an internship in pathogenic mutations driving mitochondrial myopathies. Then, for my double degree master in Biomedical and Medical Science, for which I spent a year abroad in Japan, I studied a novel drug in head and neck cancer. I focussed on the potential for it to modify the immune response in and around the tumour. However, on the side I also pursued some bioinformatical research in Alzheimer, and did a project on matters including direct-to-consumer (DTC) testing and pharmacology. I am now taking this experience on board in my PhD at the University of Würzburg where I study immune suppression by an oncogene, allowing me to apply all of my different interests. Looking ahead I hope to use my knowledge and experiences to help others out there, as well as inform people about the potential of what we do in science.
