MartinI’ve recently had an amazing opportunity to co-lead #career workshop with Dr Cody Porter and Dr Susan Griffiths, at The Annual Postgraduate Student Conference (APSC) hosted by the #AberdeenUniversity. We talked about Forensics (Dr Cody Porter), #DataScience (me), and Clinical Psychology (Dr Susan Griffiths). I thought it might be interesting, and perhaps helpful (if you’re #PhD in the final year) to write a post about moving from #academia to non-academic sectors.

Prof Alexandra Johnstone is a senior figure at the Rowett Institute in Aberdeen and she has worked with retailers, such as M&S, to create healthier food options. But she is also tackling food inequality and told me she hoped the Scottish and UK Governments would realise how many families are struggling during the cost-of-living crisis. It’s depressing this is still so prevalent in 2024! #RowettInstitute #AberdeenUniversity #ProfAlexJohnstone https://www.pressandjournal.co.uk/fp/lifestyle/6582835/prof-alex-johnstone-rowett-challenge-food-inequality/

Emily Drouet took her own life at Aberdeen University in 2016, following sustained abuse from her boyfriend. She was only 18 and it was a devastating tragedy for her family.

NHS Grampian is asking volunteers to take part in a new Moderna vaccine trial to tackle the blight of respiratory syncytial virus - RSV - which kills hundreds of Scots every year.
