Career opportunities
"The MRes in Reproduction and Pregnancy opened my eyes to the possibilities of combining a career in clinical medicine with academic research.
I'm now a trainee in obstetrics and gynaecology, but have paused my training to undertake a PhD. I'm planning to continue my career as an academic obstetrician in the future."
Dr Lynne Warrander / Clinical Research Fellow, Tommy's Manchester Research Centre
Our MSc graduates have continued their scientific or medical careers in the following areas.
