Hi, I’m Kirthika, going into 4th year after just having done my iBSc in Oncology. 

I would really like to be the next chair of Genetics and Oncology as I am really passionate in this field and would love to give others the opportunity to find out more about the science linked to this area of medicine as well as careers in Genetics and Oncology.

Previous experiences:

  • Being an events coordinator in Oncology society this year, I helped arrange the ‘Careers in Oncology’ panel event
  • As UCL Medical society Publicity Officer this year, I organised my time well and have a good understanding of all the different types of events that can be offered in this society
  • Having done the Oncology iBSc, I have gained insights into the different aspects of this field of medicine and made contacts in this field
  • Having attended the Oxford university Oncology UNIQ summer school, I have experienced working in labs and with specialist researchers in the field

Overall, I would make the most of this opportunity and hope to encourage many students at UCL to develop their understanding of this field and guide them in new opportunities.
