I first gained an interest in conducting scientific research when I was 17, and so since then this has been aim. I studied a five year degree in Pharmaceutical Sciences, during that time I tried to get the most of it and I did two internships (HIV research and Experimental Embriology research) as well as I helped in the organizing of a national congress of pharmacy students. After graduating I went to Rwanda where I taught Biology to the teachers of the Nemba School II, Gakenke District. Unfortunately, this was for a short period and I had to leave since I was starting a new course in Uppsala University, Sweden. There I obtained my first contact with modelling and simulation, an experience which drove my next decision: applying for an MSc degree in Systems Biology at Warwick University. From this course I will become confident in the art of modelling and simulation, combining it with my experimental experience in order to gain entry onto a PhD degree in Pharmacokinetics and Systems Immunology.
