Following completion of the Systems Biology MSc, our students moved on to a variety of destinations and opportunities, for example:

• Andrew Walker is undertaking a PhD at Oxford University with Professor Sunetra Gupta (http://www.zoo.ox.ac.uk/people/view/gupta_s.htm ) modelling interactions between the stage-specific immune responses to Apicomplexan (malaria-inducing) parasites and analysing results from novel multi stage vaccine trials.
• Will MacNair moved to Zurich to do a PhD at ETH with Manfred Claassen. He is using machine learning techniques to understand single cell data, looking for example at signalling dynamics and cell type composition.
• Rose Gostner won an IAS fellowship, and returned to Warwick to work in the Straube Lab.
• Andrzej Sliwa-Gonzalez is based in the laboratory of Prof. Yves Barral in ETH Zurich.
• Tim Coker is continuing on at Warwick to complete a PhD in the Gifford Lab.
• Julio Lahoz Beneytez will complete his PhD as an employee of the Computational Systems Biology Services and Solutions of Bayer Technology Services ( http://www.systems-biology.com ). He will work in the Systems Immunology and PBPK modelling areas. This project forms part of the QuanTI Marie Curie PEOPLE Initial Training Network ( http://www1.maths.leeds.ac.uk/applied/QUANTI/ ).
• Sam Forster is studying for a PhD in Mathematics at the University of Cambridge.
