I completed a Human Bioscience Top-up Degree with SHAPE in collaboration with Coventry University, which prepared me for my master's in biomedical research at Warwick, supported by the Alistair Harvey Scholarship. By collaborating with top researchers, I gained vital experience and now work in the NHS aseptic unit, producing cancer medications. I am grateful for the knowledge and support from the SHAPE Top-up Degree that helped me pursue my goals.
