Doing my PhD at the BSU has been a rewarding experience. I’ve really enjoyed being part of a diverse academic research unit, filled with inspiring researchers. The PhD cohort here is especially friendly and inclusive with all the students made to feel welcome from day one! The BSU also provides an excellent place to develop as a researcher. Throughout my PhD I’ve had numerous opportunities to collaborate, learn from others, and receive feedback on my work. This has helped me to improve my skills as a biostatistician and a published researcher. I’m pleased to be continuing here as a postdoc, exploring new research areas and tackling interesting questions

The MRC Biostatistics Unit provided me with an excellent education and a very friendly and supportive working environment. My supervisors, advisors and programme leader always had time for me when I needed their input and provided interesting discussions throughout my PhD. The BSU gave me so many opportunities. During my PhD, I provided statistical support to clinical researchers, worked on projects outside my PhD, published my research and presented at national and international conferences. I would highly recommend doing a PhD at the Unit!

I chose to do a PhD at the BSU because of its strong reputation for high-quality research in biostatistics. My project required a lot of computation, so I definitely appreciated the excellent computing facilities and very helpful computing staff. I also found the Unit to be a fantastic place to study with very friendly people and a lot of opportunities to present and discuss work. In fact I liked it so much that I stayed on to do a postdoc!
