MRes Clinical Research (Diabetes and Obesity) 21/22 - Wen Xi Tang

What did you most enjoy about your course? 

The most enjoyable part of taking a MRes is having more time to dedicate to my own research project. I have met good friends and mentors in this course and will continue to keep in touch with the lovely people I met.

What did you most appreciate about the Faculty/College? 

I felt very supported by Fiona, our lovely course administrator, Aaron, the pathway course leader, and Suzie, my personal tutor. They did not hesitate to help with any queries and answered all of my email queries. Their feedbacks on the modules were very helpful and certainly enhanced my understanding of the learning outcomes.

How did it feel to receive the Dean's Prize?

I am very honored to receive the Dean's prize. The students in this course are excellent, and so to have been awarded this prize made me feel humbled and proud of my efforts. I am incredibly thankful to my supervisors, Nick and Pari, who have provided me with patience and support.

What are you doing now/ What do you plan on doing after graduation? 

I am currently working as a foundation doctor. My educational supervisor has been very supportive as I was preparing my master's thesis and viva while starting Foundation year 1, and I am very grateful for that. I plan to continue exploring my interest in Diabetes and Endocrinology through internal medicine training.
