Hello! I am a current undergraduate medical student at Imperial College London with a strong interest in surgical innovation and trauma care. My research project focuses on tracking the recovery of burns patients using digitised tools, aiming to enhance outcomes and personalise post-trauma care through technology-driven solutions.

Rising sophomore at Columbia studying Economics, Philosophy, and Political Science  

Hi there! I’m a third-year student at Trinity College, University of Toronto, studying International Relations and History. This summer, I’m researching how civil war and genocide shape political transitions, specifically, why some post-conflict societies move toward autocracy instead of democracy. I'm exploring contemporary and historical case studies to better understand these patterns and the role of international support. Always happy to connect, feel free to reach out!

I'm a student at Cornell's School of Industrial and Labor Relations with a strong interest in how international labor policy, migration, and ethics intersect. Alongside my coursework, I'm building language and regional fluency in Spanish, Arabic, and Near Eastern Studies. As a Laidlaw Scholar, I'm currently participating in a decolonial ecopedagogy project in the Ecuadorian Amazon, an experience that's deepening my commitment to sustainable and justice-centered diplomacy. I'm working toward a career in the Foreign Service, where I hope to shape policy that protects vulnerable communities and promotes equity across borders.

Hi there ! My name is Aminata and I am a first year Life Sciences Engeneering Major at EPFL.  I am passionate about harnessing scientific progress to better people’s lives, and I hope to focus my efforts on rehabilitative technologies. I am confident that scientific progress is to be driven by the desire to create meaningful change, and that the Laidlaw experience is a fantastic mixture of both.  My interests include reading, watching roms-coms, and travelling. Do not hesitate to reach out and/or connect, I'd love to hear from you :)

I'm an incoming third-year student of English at the University of St Andrews from New Delhi, India, and I'm interested in languanges and literature. My research project explores literature in radical bookshops.

I work primarily within the field of procedural generation and parametric design. Please talk to me if either of these interest you!

Hi! I’m Grace and I’m a first year medical student at the University of St Andrews in Scotland. For some time now I’ve been interested in the mechanics of cancer and how the inner workings of a tumour affect a patient’s diagnosis, prognosis and treatment.  We are fortunate to live in a time of ever-growing research, and with as many as one in two people being diagnosed with some form of cancer in their lifetime, there’s an urgent need to bring this research into a clinical context so that patients can benefit from it. This interest is what has compelled me to look into the presence of certain biomarkers and their relation to immune cells within tumours, which I will start researching during my first summer as a Laidlaw scholar this year. In an effort to make this as relevant as possible to patient care, I will use this data to develop an AI algorithm which will aim to predict patient prognosis by analysing tumour samples.  Alongside my studies I’ve enjoyed being the charity representative of our Oncology Society, especially since it’s allowed me to fundraise by baking treats and going on seaside runs! Outside of medicine I love to sing and spend every spare moment I have in chapel singing choral music with the university’s chapel choir, although I have been known to spend hours singing along to Les Mis whenever I get the chance.
