About me:
Hello!! My name's Vy and I make vlogs and chit chat videos about pursuing an education / career in biomedical research.
I'm currently working as a research assistant in Cambridge and studied biomedical science for my undergrad and postgrad in the UK.
This channel is also a place for me to document the little joys in my every day life, travel adventures and all in all, just memories I'd want to look back on.

Ngl watching this makes me want to work as a research assistant very much... Busy day of work even if full of ups and downs... Yeah I won't mind at all😅😇 how important is stats in all this? Are you asked to analyse or interpret data too?

[@biomedwithvy]

hahaaa it is the nature of all jobs but I feel you, I don't mind tougher days as long as I enjoy what I do 😊 my project doesn't require me to do stats, but it will depend on the project you are working on!

I loving these videos!!!!! Does the work get repetitive as an assistant?

[@biomedwithvy]

thank you!! yes it can get quite repetitive after awhile, but it depends a lot on the project you're part of, but then again there are always learning opportunities (all you need to do is ask).
