PhD student Vanessa Lattimore has won the 2016 PSOC Best Exit Seminar award.
The Postgraduate Student Otago (Christchurch) association assembles a panel of UOC research staff each year to judge which student gave the best seminar at the UOC Research Seminar Series upon or nearing completion of their PhD.
Vanessa gave her seminar in August on genetic variation and mRNA splicing in familial breast cancer genes.
She is supervised by Dr Margaret Currie, Professor Bridget Robinson and Dr Logan Walker.
