Two students have been awarded the Biomedical Vacation Scholarships to undertake work in the School of Medicine, with Dr Katarina Oravcova, and in the School of Psychology, with Dr Ines Jentzsch, each for a period of eight weeks. These awards provide promising undergraduates with hands-on experience
of research during the summer vacation, with the aim of encouraging them
to consider a career in research. The scheme has been run by the Wellcome Trust since 1959.
