Student Profiles
Obtaining a degree at Keele University was a superb, exceptional and enlightening experience. I was supervised by two Worldwide leading scientists: Prof R Ward and Dr J Gordon Hamilton. I had the opportunity to be part of an important research group (CAEP), which allowed me to interact with other prominent and motivating researchers and also to gain access to state-of-the-art facilities. Whilst studying my PhD, I enjoyed very much the quietness of Keele campus and the beautiful landscapes of nearby villages.
Dr Eduardo A. Rebollar-Tellez, Mexico. Educardo graduated from Keele University with a PhD and is currently working at Universidad Autonoma de Nuevo Leon as a lecturer within the Laboratory of Medical Entomology.
