Anna Southworth - ICA Internship

I have since completed my MSc in Radiotherapy and Oncology, for myself, I believe this was greatly enhanced through my NIHR/HEE ICA Internship award as I developed a number of skills during the award that allowed me to be better prepared for the completion of an MSc dissertation.More
