How did GO help?The graduate… “The GO programme placement has enabled me to gain practical skills and experience working in a biotech laboratory environment. Now I know what it is like to work in the context of what I’ve been studying and that I’d like to work in the biotech industry after I’ve graduated.” The business… “The GO programme has enabled us to bring in help and support with practical laboratory work at a busy time when other support was lacking. The time available to spend on research is quite limited at the moment due to other business demands, and the student’s contribution has been very valuable. His background in neuroscience has provided a good match of knowledge with the company making a real difference to the results we’ve been able to generate.” | |
