I'm a first year at Cambridge studying Sociology, Anthropology and Political Science which means I am yet to settle on only one topic for my research project, Luckily this summer I will firstly be working with "Experience Cambridge" for my Leadership in Action placement, trying to make information more accessible to people experiencing homelessness in the Cambridge area. In the context of this experience I am especially interested in learning more about alternative, possibly non-hierarchical forms of leadership so if you're research project/LiA placmement is somehow related to this topic I'd love to hear more about it!

Hi, my name is Carys and I am going into my second year studying Medicine at the University of Cambridge. My interests mainly lie in public health, preventive medicine and infectious diseases, however I find all aspects of clinical and community healthcare interesting. I am interested in potential research into antimicrobial resistance (AMR) and other pressing global issues, and seeing how we can ensure access to appropriate healthcare systemically by reducing inequalities. This summer I am completing my Leadership in Action project with the Red Hen Project in Cambridge - a charity dedicated to helping children and families facing hardship. The charity hopes to expand to a deprived region in Cambridge and I will be evaluating the current services available for children, and where the charity can create the most long standing impact. The project is focussed on preventative measures to ensure children can live happier and healthier lives by reducing barriers they may face. This project is solidifying my current hope to work in paediatrics or public health.
