Jack Groves

Further to completing his studies in A Level Biology, Chemistry, Psychology, and Environmental Science (plus AS Level Maths) in July 2022, Jack progressed to a degree in Neuroscience. He is now studying an MSc in Molecular Medicine at Imperial College London. He told us, "I am researching a rare genetic autoinflammatory disease by creating a disease model through genetic modification. I have also worked on ALS and how connections between neurons are lost in neurodegeneration." Jack is also training for a half marathon to raise funds for Alzheimer's Research UK, after witnessing the toll dementia took on his own family. If you would like to support Jack in his efforts, follow the link below.
