Dr Tizzy Allison, former PhD student I am really enjoying studying for my PhD here in Edinburgh. I have found the environment to be supportive and friendly. There is a good community both within the lab and with other labs in the department and people are always ready to give advice and help. I have also enjoyed running the getCONNECTED workshop in primary schools. This is one of the many public engagement activities that Edinburgh Neuroscience runs and has been a great way to improve my communication skills and confidence.
