What is your name?<\/b><\/b><\/p>\n
Gamze Kazakoglu<\/p>\n
Where are you from?<\/b><\/b><\/p>\n
Istanbul, Turkey<\/p>\n
To which class do you belong?<\/b><\/b><\/p>\n
MSc Translational Neuroscience 2024-2025<\/p>\n
Where and what did you study before joining Imperial College London?<\/b><\/b><\/p>\n
I got my BSc in Psychology from Yale<\/p>\n
How did you find your\u00a0Master’s\u00a0experience at the College?<\/b><\/b><\/p>\n
Immersive, fast-paced, and deeply rewarding! I gained exposure to diverse research areas in neuroscience and ultimately chose the project that resonated with me the most<\/p>\n
Which research project did you work on?<\/b><\/b><\/p>\n
I completed my project with the Translational Machine Intelligence Lab and the UK Dementia Research Institute under the supervision of Professor Payam Barnaghi. My research focused on developing a machine learning pipeline that integrated clustering and supervised models to predict dementia risk from longitudinal sleep and physiological data<\/p>\n
Where are you now?\u00a0<\/b><\/b><\/p>\n
Still in London<\/p>\n
What are you working on?<\/b><\/b><\/p>\n
Working as a Business Analyst in a healthcare consulting company<\/p>\n
What is the most important lesson you learnt as a\u00a0Master\u2019s\u00a0student?<\/b><\/b><\/p>\n
For the project, I learned to plan my roadmap wisely and realistically, and to consistently check in with my supervisor\u2014since even one small unnoticed mistake once cost me a great deal of time. As for the modules, I made it a point to take away at least one key insight from each, even when the content didn\u2019t immediately spark my interest. Education is truly priceless, and it passes by more quickly than you realise!<\/p>\n
How did the Master\u2019s programme help you get to where you are now?<\/b><\/b><\/p>\n
Apart from this amazing programme, I was also fortunate to be at an institution like Imperial and in a city like London, both of which offer numerous career resources, networking events, and opportunities to meet inspiring people. I did not shy away from taking full advantage of these opportunities and would recommend the same to everyone<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
