A huge thank you and congratulations to Beth Jebson, CLUSTER’s Research Assistant who is now moving on from this role to begin an exciting step in her career! Beth is starting a Fight for Sight and Versus Arthritis funded PhD studentship at UCL Great Ormond Street Institute of Child Health, under the supervision of CLUSTER PI Professor Lucy Wedderburn with Dr Elizabeth C. Rosser. While we are sad to lose her, Beth’s PhD research project will build on some of the important work she has carried out with CLUSTER. Continuing reading below to find out more.
What is your PhD investigating?
My PhD will investigate the role of immune cells that produce antibodies (B-cells) on the development of JIA-uveitis.
How did your role with CLUSTER influence you to apply for this PhD?
CLUSTER has taught me everything I know about JIA & Uveitis. Working with so many experts in the field has really cemented that this is the area of research that I want to pursue.
What do you hope to do after this?
3 years seems like a lifetime away! But I hope that I can use key findings from my PhD & CLUSTER to begin a postdoc.
