Hello!!! My name is Samuel (feel free to call me sam). I'm a year 10 student who's keen on learning about medicine and chemistry and possibly work in theses fields.

In my spare time, I love to binge shows on Netflix, play my guitar, play video games and read.

I'm fascinated with the human body and the way it repairs and manages itself  and the body's response to diseases. My interest in the biomedical field has mainly led me to want to be a doctor (however this might change). In particular, I'm interested in oncology and the different ways we could treat/prevent cancer.

Other interests of mine range from serious topics (e.g. politics and history) to more leisurely things such as Marvel, food and dad jokes.

# data[].attributes.body
Hi my name is Rojisan and I'm currently in Year 10. I enjoy playing the piano, reading, and playing basketball with my friends.

Although slightly unsure, I would like to pursue a career in the medical field. It's one of those career pathways where you feel as if you're helping out others.

Everyday, I try to learn something new. Life has endless possibilities and wonders, and this programme is one of those wonders I look forward to.

I'm very excited for this opportunity and I can't wait to see you all!

# data[].attributes.body
Heya, I'm Georgia (and a Sagittarius :D)!

I am currently a Year 10 student who is amazed by all aspects of science, but biological medical research on stem cells, organ transplants, cell therapies and more for sure entices me the most!

Some things that I love to do (when I have the time) is drawing, crafts, skin care routines, reading (I'm really into Rick Riordan books at the moment), playing badminton, watching netflix, playing with my pets, visiting new places with friends and making therapeutic, aesthetic revision notes (of course).

I am really excited in beginning this programme and can't wait to meet you all soon !!!

Hello! My name is Paz, and I'm Programme Manager at TwinsUK, King's College London.

I work to set up and manage research studies and keep our twins happy.

Outside of work, I enjoy ballroom & Latin dancing, baking, sewing and hosting dinner parties.

I'm looking forward to working with you on our project about communicating science to non-scientists.

# data[].attributes.body
Hi! I have two names that are mentioned above. One is my birth name (Jie) (I'm Chinese/Malaysian if you're wondering) and the other one (Anderson) is what my parents gave me to allow me to fit in with school more easily. I'm fine with whichever name you prefer to call me!

I'm a Year 11 student and I'm interested in the entire medical field as a whole. I'm currently not sure which area of medicine I would say is the best since they are all important and intriguing, to say the least.

In my free time, I watch anime (Japanese cartoons), YouTube, read books and WEBTOON (a webcomic), swim, play the piano and online games and many more. If you asked to pick a favourite book or cartoon, I wouldn't be able to pick one since they are all very good. I am also very competitive and wouldn't mind playing any sport but I love playing volleyball (because of an anime series I watched).

In the future, I'm not sure what specific job I should apply for but all I know is that my options are either going into the medical field or entering the financial side of society such as investing in stocks and trades or digital currency such as Bitcoin.

I'm very excited about this opportunity because it allows me to have a better insight into the medical field and because I am always curious and wish to know more about the medical field in more detail.

I look forward to meeting and working together with some of you soon.

Why do we have a virtual library?

Our team are passionate about working with our communities including patients, local schools, community groups and non-research staff at Guy's and St Thomas' NHS Foundation Trust.

The COVID-19 pandemic and the need for social distancing have meant that we have had to work differently with our communities. In 2020, our Summer School was delivered entirely online for the first time and we have continued to work with local schools and other community groups to find new ways of working. This has all allowed us to build up a large amount of resources, tools and films which provide our communities with an insight into scientific and clinical research.

This virtual library is a place for us to continue to grow resources. What else would you like to see here? We invite feedback and to share your ideas for new content.

"Public Engagement means "the myriad of ways in which the activity and benefits of higher education and research can be shared with the public. Engagement is by definition a two-way process, involving interaction and listening, with the goal of generating mutual benefit."

My name is Flavia and I am a Senior Bioinformatician in the GSTT Translational Bioinformatics Platform. Within my role I support research studies with bits of code to analyse complex dataset, especially microbial data.

I am passionate about science and the environment and how they link with health. I have a non-conventional health path starting with working in the marine environment from big organisms and moving into bacteria and viruses. My career path in bioinformatics allowed me to live and work in various countries moving from Italy to the UK to South Africa and back to the UK where my career path was set into health research (never forgetting how the environment can impact our health) .

In the NHS I was able to work with projects aimed at improve women and children’s health and gave me the opportuntiy to run science workshops

When I am not at work you can usually found me reading, drawing or at one of the many theatres or London galleries. Arts and Science are my two big loves.

My main interest is the novel technology that could provide better medical services to everyone. This year I'm mainly focusing on combining VR technology and fMRI to reduce patients' mental disorders.

Outside of studies, I'm a video game player and would like to attend all kinds of challenges. I'm also a fan of FC Bayern Munich and enjoy doing different sports.

I am looking forward to seeing you!

Hi.  My name is Rhia and I’m a Research Scientist based at the Centre for Stem Cells and Regenerative Medicine at KCL. I am fascinated by how our immune systems make decisions and how these processes influence allergy, autoimmunity and response to infection.   Through clinical studies, primary human work and bioinformatics, I look for insights to generate translational impact for products, treatments and public health interventions. Mostly recently, I’ve worked closely with UKHSA to understand protective immunity against COVID-19.

I’m from West Wales originally and I’m the first member of my family to go to University. At home, I have a little boy and, like me, he loves cooking, baking and playing video games. I look forward to meeting you at the KHP Academy and chatting about life as a researcher.
