As my first research summer draws to a close, I look back upon the journey that I have taken this summer. This summer has provided me with much agency to independently organise my time. However, as much as this has been an opportunity to explore the adult working world, it has equally been a challenge. It has been insightful to integrate the teachings of the Oxford Character Project into the research project, and practise these skills.

I'm Frederic, a first-year undergraduate on the six-year medicine programme (BA BM BCh) at the University of Oxford. Outside of medicine, I am an avid musician, playing violin with the Oxford University Philharmonia. This year, my research with the SDG Impact Lab partners with the recently established Leys Cricket Club to investigate participation of underrepresented groups in this community initiative.
