My specific interest lies in body image and I would love to spend my future career researching how we form opinions about our…
I study for an Integrated Master’s in Chemistry, currently in my 4th and final year and I’m a member of Grey College. My two favourite things about my college are; the amazing proximity of the college to the science site, and since I became a liver out (not living in college) the friends I made whilst there, they are my best…
