Case Study
Maisha, BSc graduate
Maisha was one of our most impressive students who had all the enthusiasm an aspiring Biomedical scientist needs. She joined with us in 2021 as a student completing her final year at university. After completing the course, Maisha went onto locum at Kingston NHS trust and then moved to a private laboratory in central London and completed her registration. As of 2023 she is a registered BMS working towards completing her Master’s degree.
