Student Valeria Mastrullo Biosciences and Medicine PhD My project aims to evaluate the existence of a circadian clock in vascular pericytes, mural cells whose role is to support and enhance vascular function of endothelial cells in capillaries.
Student Josh Reding Physics PhD The facilities are impressive, and they allow me a wide range of approaches to studying my materials. I’m fully in charge of my own lab facility, and I’ve designed, built and run my experiments from beginning to end. The amount of freedom provided to me has been remarkable.
Student Sophia Lilleengen Astrophysics PhD The astrophysics staff are approachable, helpful and very supportive. The facilities I need are computer clusters, and we have several big ones in astrophysics and in the wider University.
Student Emma Taylor Veterinary Medicine and Science PhD My PhD has allowed me to visit countries endemic for rabies, meet those most at risk of exposure to the disease, and hear first-hand about the socioeconomic constraints and challenges that face these communities.
Student Marco Mello Economics PhD Being part of the multicultural environment at Surrey has made me grow, not only as a researcher but also as a human being.
Student Hadiza Adamu Fika Politics PhD A degree in politics has provided me with the analytical and practical skills to explore my full potential. The importance of politics in our society can’t be overemphasised.
Student Simon Noel Aerodynamic and Environmental Flow PhD My supervisors have been very supportive throughout my research. Furthermore, the range of facilities available will be invaluable for the implementation of my techniques.
Student Victor Mazzilli Automotive Engineering PhD It’s a friendly and collaborative environment. We work mostly in a wide and comfortable office and, occasionally, we have the opportunity to run experiments with real cars or in the test rig lab.
Student Alejandro Pozo Domínguez Aerodynamic and Environmental Flow PhD The University has a lot of societies if you’re interested in them and the atmosphere on the campus and in Guildford itself is really nice.
