The Genesis of Learn Science Academy: A Personal Journey to Enhance Life Sciences Education Reflecting on my own academic journey while pursuing both my Bachelor's and Master's degrees, I encountered a challenge that resonates with many aspiring scientists. Despite the demanding nature of our coursework, I found that access to advanced molecular techniques, state-of-the-art equipment, and the latest software necessary for research and industry was alarmingly limited. This gap in practical experience often hindered the transition into research roles or positions in industries where such skills are paramount. During my college years, it was all too easy to become preoccupied with meeting curriculum requirements rather than genuinely enhancing our skill sets. While textbooks and academic protocols provided a systematic approach to performing techniques, they fell short in preparing us for the inevitable challenges that arise in real-world scenarios. There was a distinct disconnect between theoretical knowledge and practical problem-solving. I vividly remember a phase in my studies where I was well-versed in theory but lacked hands-on experience with cutting-edge techniques. It was a frustrating experience, often leaving me feeling significantly behind my peers who had the benefit of practical exposure. Fortunately, a pivotal opportunity arose that allowed me to gain the practical experience I had been yearning for. Engaging with the latest trends, techniques, and tools not only equipped me with a competitive edge but also opened doors in research and industry. This transformative experience made me realize that I was not alone in facing these challenges; many students grapple with similar obstacles. It was in this moment of clarity that the concept for Learn Science Academy was born. Learn Science Academy was established with a mission to bridge the gap in life sciences education. We offer comprehensive training on the latest molecular techniques, bioinformatics tools, and industry-relevant skills designed to propel students and researchers ahead of the curve. Our approach goes beyond merely teaching protocols; we emphasize the importance of troubleshooting when experiments don’t unfold as expected—a crucial skill often overlooked in traditional education. In a rapidly evolving field like life sciences, staying ahead is essential. At Learn Science Academy, we are dedicated to empowering you with the skills that truly make a difference in your career. Join us on this journey, and together, let's cultivate a future where every aspiring life scientist can thrive. #LearnScienceAcademy #MolecularBiology #Bioinformatics #ResearchSkills #LifeSciences #ScientificEducation #UpSkill #CareerInScience #TroubleshootingTechniques

Grant Manager/Science Educator/ Science Communication/Scientific Alliances Promoter/Gifted Educator for Biological Sciences/Associate member American Association for Cancer Research
Being a Biotechnology Student is not easy.. when a student join undergraduate course in biotechnology they are full of enthusiasm that they will change the world. They will find cure of all deadly diseases and will design rapid diagnostic kit and what not and all of them idealises to be a future scientist. But when time pass half of students leave course by the end of third year and choosen some alternative PG courses. As they have already tasted a sip of long lab hours,failed experiments,tough competitive exam to purse higher studies and survival in minimal fellowship.But there are some warriors who pursue Masters in Biotechnology.But there fairly tale story change into long discussion on failed NET JRF attempts and struggle to work in Adhoc project positions for survival after Masters. When there school friends are discussing there packages they are fighting for fellowship hike delayed cycle of fellowship payment and what not but still they dare to pursue PhD. In this hope one day that change will come in system. So let's not pity on ourselves because this tough situation prepare us to know that science can win any war..let's celebrate our journey and be proud and keep on sharing science knowledge with community at whatever capacity we can. so being a biotechnology student is not easy but life long journey of learning and sharing..

Biotechnology (BSc) at University of Nottingham II Research Intern funded by Wellcome Trust Biomedical Vacation Scholarship Scheme II International table tennis player
"The beauty of research is that the more questions you answer, the more they arise, leading to exciting new discoveries!" These words from Dr Ifty Ahmed perfectly summarise my summer research experience. I am excited to share that I have completed an 8-week research internship at the University of Nottingham, funded by the Wellcome Trust Biomedical Vacation Scholarship Scheme. Under the supervision of Dr Ifty Ahmed and Dr Samantha Bryan, I worked on a project that intersects biomaterials and microbiology—an exciting combination bringing innovative solutions to environmental challenges while promoting a circular economy. I believe everyone should have access to clean resources and the opportunity to experience the planet’s natural beauty. However, the growing threats posed by climate change make this increasingly difficult. That’s why we need novel methods to ignite a paradigm shift in environmental remediation! During my internship, I developed key skills in microbiology and materials science. In microbiology, I worked on growth media preparation, microscopy, spectrophotometry, and bead-beating techniques for diatom analysis. I also designed experiments to study how environmental stimuli impact diatom performance and nutrient uptake profiles, and conducted a literature review on diatom biology, environmental challenges, and proposed genetic engineering methods. In materials science, I utilised SEM-EDX and XRD, and prepared samples for ICP analysis. Beyond project-specific knowledge, the interdisciplinary nature of this work strengthened my skills in project management, communication, and teamwork. I often acted as a bridge, facilitating collaboration by connecting experts from different fields and identifying how their work complemented one another to create synergy. I ensured the project’s background was clearly communicated to different parties with well-defined goals. Conducting literature research in parallel with ongoing experiments allowed me to adjust strategies based on feedback, while regular meetings with supervisors helped set milestones, evaluate progress, identify bottlenecks, and refine our approach. I have developed a more effective time management system, especially when coordinating with different parties. I also observed leadership in action through my supervisors, who built a positive and supportive environment. Their courage to push boundaries and explore novelty shaped my perspective on leadership, which I plan to apply as a leader in academic projects and as a table tennis coach. "Embrace the unknown, and enjoy the unexpected!" – this phrase sums up my internship experience. I am incredibly grateful for this opportunity, which allowed me to grow personally and professionally. A huge thank you to my supervisors, Ifty and Sam, and to Towhid, Farah and Sean for your daily help and insights! Lastly, thanks to the Researcher Academy and the Wellcome Trust for making this opportunity possible.
