Elspeth McGuigan

Hello, I’m Elsie, a postgraduate student studying for a Masters degree in Genomic Medicine at the University of Birmingham. I graduated with my undergraduate degree in Biomedicine at the University of East Anglia and decided to continue my studies and explore my interest in genomics at the University of Birmingham.

I have always been interested in human biology and decided to pursue Biomedicine to learn more about the science behind medicine and research. I really enjoyed my undergraduate degree and found genetics particularly interesting, igniting a passion to study this field further.

I discovered the genomic medicine course when researching Masters degree courses, and chose the University of Birmingham as the course fit my interest perfectly as well as the fact this university has lots to offer for student life.
