Hi, I'm Jennifer
I am an internationally trained doctor. When I came to the UK, I started as a Clinical Support Worker caring for patients with dementia on the ward. Today I am a Clinical Research Assistant working on NIHR portfolio studies in dementia research, and I hold a Master of Public Health with Distinction.
Breaking in took me a full year from my first application. I had two industry professionals who guided me along the way, and I promised myself I would do the same for others. Scrubs to Studies is that promise.
