My aims:
- Educate students without bioscience degrees about knowledge in genetics through seminars led by undergraduates or postgraduates.
- Allow researchers at UCL and elsewhere to share insights into cutting-edge genetics research and inspire each other.
- Host more academic workshops and talks on genetics to help students and members develop research ideas, and critical thinking skills.
- Partner with the Biochemistry Society and Genetics Society to launch a unique Cell and Molecular Biology journal.
- Give students from any background a chance to ‘publish’ in our journal and receive feedback to practice their writing.
My plans:
- Host online seminars and tutorials on specific skills/knowledge and ensure smooth communication between the audience and presenters.
- Create and evaluate feedback forms for each event to suggest future events.
- Work with other life science societies in promoting and holding events.
- Meet monthly with members to reflect on previous events and plan for the next stage.
- Recruit more editors and journal club assistants to create the Molecular Biology journal.
My experience:
- Co-organised social events (e.g. 10km mini-marathon) for my high school class.
- Led volunteer groups and gave presentations/talks at the Science Museum in China.
- Attended many extracurricular in-person and online seminars over the past few years.
