Bronwyn Westmore is an MRes Advanced Biological Science student within the School of Biological Sciences at the University of 天发娱乐棋牌_天发娱乐APP-官网|下载.
I graduated from Aberystwyth University in 2019 with a first-class honours in BSc Biology.
My undergraduate dissertation aimed to provide proof of gene duplication in snake venom genes. The results also suggested the possible mechanism of gene duplication.
Why I chose MRes Advanced Biological Science
I chose to study an MRes in Advance Biological Science as it affords the opportunity to learn the base skillset for a research scientist. The prospect of undertaking a project for 12 months was also very appealing as any previous undergraduate research was on a much reduced timeline.
Aims for the future
After my MRes I hope to complete a PhD in epigenetics. Overall I would like to pursue a career in research and academia – with the ultimate goal of one day becoming a professor.
