Breastfeeding is not only healthy for babies, it may also help to reduce mothers’ risk of having a heart attack or stroke later in life, according to new research published in today’s issue of Journal of the American Heart Association, the Open Access Journal of the American Heart Association/American Stroke Association. The work is based on a large prospective cohort study of 300,000 adult women in China.
Students - Where are they now?
We actively try to keep in touch with our graduates to monitor how our MSc course has helped influence their career progression. We're continually updating this page, so please keep checking back for the latest information. Since 2008, a total of 263 students have graduated from the course, of whom 32 have obtained a ‘Distinction’. Analysis of our graduate destinations for cohorts 1-9 (2008-2016) shows 32% hold positions in embryology (either as Laboratory Director, Trainee Embryologist or Andrologist), 29% continued with a PhD or hold a research position, 26% have either begun training as a clinician or returned to medicine, and 13% have ventured into other fields. Twenty four of our graduates have registered for DPhil degrees with the department and of these, six have attracted funding from the Clarendon Scholarship Scheme.
Seminars
During term time there are weekly Departmental Seminars at 1pm Tuesdays in the AALT (and online for those that cannot be there in person). At these Departmental Seminars we will have internal and external speakers covering a range of topics of interests to people in the department (particularly related to our research themes). Pizza lunch is provided for those attending in person. Attendance, particularly in person, is encouraged. Departmental Seminars provide an update on research, methods and/or skills and are a valuable part of NDWRH, both for networking and scientific interest.
