Hi Everyone! I\u2019d like to take a few minutes to introduce\nmyself, my name is Iqra and I am currently studying my Msc in Health Psychology\nat King\u2019s! Alongside this role I am also a course rep for the subject and my education\nand work experience background is also in the field of psychology (completing a\nBSc in psychology and research assistant and AP roles in the past)! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

When I\u2019m not busy studying I enjoy Netflix-ing and reading\npsychological thrillers (my current read is the silent patient by Alex\nMichaelides). <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I look forward to engaging and answering any questions you\nmay have!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\nHello!\nMy name is Julia and I am at KCL for my MSc in Neuroscience. I am an\ninternational student from the United States, more specifically I am from the\nChicagoland area. I did my bachelors at Elmhurst College (now Elmhurst\nUniversity) where I graduated last spring with a BSc in Psychology and a minor\nin Biology. I have been fortunate enough to have arrived in the UK back in\nmid-September, and I have really enjoyed my time here even despite being in a\nlockdown most of the time. I have thoroughly enjoyed my course so far, and I hope\nto share more with you all soon! \n\n\n\n\n\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hi everyone! I\u2019m Amy, I\u2019m a postgraduate student studying Global Mental Health, which is a joint programme between King\u2019s and the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine. I studied undergrad BSc Psychology at the University of Nottingham and after my masters, I want to go into public health or policy development. In my spare time, I love to play netball, this year I would have been playing for the KCL first team. I also enjoy overpriced coffee and drinking wine with friends (when that\u2019s allowed). <\/p>\n\n\n\n
