I have conducted several research projects During medical school I have utilised research opportunities at the MRC Centre for Neuropsychiatric Genetics and Genomics in Cardiff, most notably the world... 's largest analysis of 1q21.1 copy number variation, a known risk factor for neuropsychiatric disease. Initially this was a small SSC project, however, after impressing my supervisors with my commitment and standards, I collaborated with peers to expand the project to satisfy requirements for an intercalated BSc. The project demanded competencies in various domains including neuropsychiatric assessments on subjects and high-level statistical analysis of data. This has led to medical school prizes and meaningful clinical findings, of a sufficiently high standard to present at conferences and to allow preparation of a manuscript for submission to JAMA Psychiatry. It has also led to recognition with a Pathfinder Fellowship from the Royal College of Psychiatrists to examine the translational potential of this work in North America, in 2019. Paid researcher I also conducted the first PheWAS at the centre for neuropsychiatric genetics and genomics. Se veral colleagues and I used data from the UK biobank of 500,000 genotyped participants to analyse the phenotype of carriers of a strongly associated genotype for SCZ.
