Hi my name is Abdul I’m a first-year PhD student at the University of York. My PhD focuses on the mechanisms behind plasmid inheritance in bacteria and discovering potential new targets to treat antibiotic resistance. I joined BioSci Toolkit because I am passionate about science communication and sharing knowledge! I never want to stop learning and hope I can share useful advice with anyone considering a career in Biosciences. Outside of the lab, I am a photographer and love rock climbing and basketball.

Hello, fellow bioscience enthusiasts and anyone delving into the intriguing world of biosciences! I'm Caleb Oritseju Eferakorho, currently in my fourth year of Biochemistry with a Year in Research at Imperial College London. During my placement year, I had the opportunity to engage in research at University College London (UCL). My primary bioscience interest revolves around cancer immunology, exploring how we can leverage the immune system to combat cancer. Beyond the realm of bioscience, I love singing—an integral part of my life rooted in my musically inclined family, where my Dad serves as a praise and worship leader. Currently, I actively contribute to my Church Gospel Choir and hold a position on the committee of the Imperial College Choir. My involvement extends to the committee of the Biochemistry Society. Additionally, I am passionate about films—discussing, critiquing, and analysing them is something I can do endlessly. In fact, I serve as the film journalist for Imperial College London Film society. Moreover, I discovered a newfound hobby during the COVID lockdown—baking. From cinnamon rolls to chocolate chip cookies, flan to sticky toffee pudding, I've enjoyed experimenting with various recipes and I have loved every minute😊

Feel free to connect with me on LinkedIn and message me with any bioscience thoughts or questions you may have (Caleb Eferakorho).
