Personal profile statement

I am a committed, determined and self-motivated Geneticist with experience of studying genes, diagnosing genetic diseases and assisting with the development of new drugs. My core skills include experimental design, field work, statistical data analysis and a wide array of laboratory techniques. I have an analytical and investigative approach to my work which has enabled me to achieve a 1st class honours degree in this field. I have demonstrated an ability to manage a laboratory project and communicate with a wide variety of scientific colleagues through my previous work experience.

I consistently strive to work to the best of my ability and deliver professional standards at all times and in all circumstances.
