Abhishek Prashant Thakar
Student | Intercalating | United KingdomMSc Public Health for Global Practice
Educational/professional background
3rd Year Medical Student at the University of Liverpool
Research interests or career goals
In medical school, I have carried out research on the prevalence of ultra-processed food in the UK foodbank system. In the future, I wish to combine clinical work with Global Public Health advocacy and research. I am particularly interested in understanding the root cause of health inequalities and learning about sustainable international development.
Why I chose LSHTM/my programme
I wanted the opportunity to learn from the fantastic breadth of experiences in my cohort, teachers, and the wider LSHTM community, whilst being part of a world-leading institution, which is truly passionate about advancing health globally.
Extra information
As an intercalating rep, I am happy to help medical students with the application process and the transition from medical school.
