Choosing to double major in Neuroscience and Data Science was a decision I made early on, as I recognised how important computational thinking has become to modern scientific research. I knew that if I found data science too challenging, I could always change direction or keep it as a minor instead, so it felt like a safe option to try and push myself. Now in my final year, I regularly apply skills from my data science units, particularly coding and statistical analysis, to my neuroscience units and lab placements, using them to work with and interpret real data. I intend to pursue a career in research, so developing these skills has given me a valuable head start.
