Hi guys, Akshay here. I have not posted in a while as I was caught up with my university admissions paperwork but am more free nowadays and hope to actively contribute to this blog. Personally, I have developed a keen interest in Cancer and endocrinology and my posts would predominantly be focused on the issues surrounding these branches of medicine. My interest stems from my A-level Biology days when I found the topics of cancer and specifically the pancreas particularly interesting. I expanded on my interest by reading books such as ‘The Emperor of All Maladies’ which I found to be intellectually stimulating. I would be posting articles on the scientific basis of cancer and endocrinology as I really like the pathology and biochemistry behind these. However, I do acknowledge that I may not be aware of all the scientific minutiae involved and your comments will be greatly appreciated in refining my knowledge.

Hi I am a new blogger to this site and will be known as medschool2013.

 I am currently studying for my A-Levels and a prospective medical student applying in October 2012. I have a huge passion for medicine with particular interests currently being in the branch of cardiology. This interest was ignited during my work experience placement shadowing doctors in a cardiology department. Since then i have pursued my interest by undertaking an Open University module ‘Understanding Cardiovascular Diseases’. As well as this I try to play an active role in my local hospital as I am a member of the NHS youth council.

I hope my blogs will be interesting, engaging and intriguing to everyone and I will appreciate any feedback/suggestions.

Hi everyone it’s Futuremedic1 here!

I am a new guest blogger on this site and I thought I’d tell you all a little about myself. I’m a prospective medical student who is hoping to go to medical school next year (2013). My current interests in medicine lie in the fields of oncology and cardiology, although of course that is liable to change as I explore other branches of medicine. As for work experience, I have undertaken a couple of weeks in my local hospital and have also spent time at a scientific research lab. I hope that you will read and enjoy my posts, and please feel free to ask me any questions.
