Thanks for the replies
Iv saved up around £30,000 i was a bit worried about the lab costs...i do get accepted to interview stage (4 times although iv been applying for a year) but never make it through... a lot of the forums are saying getting funding has become very competitive and i thought since i got a pass grade marks (59) although from a good university (imperial college) i might not have a chance for getting accepted the funded route.

Hi
after trying to apply for funded phds for a year i havent had any offers and am thinking of self funding.
Most of the websites i go to say that i have to find and contact a supervisor in a subject area im interested in... iv got an msc in human genetics only a Pass grade and want to do something in stem cells but dont exactly know what...how should i contact a supervisor and what should i say..should i send my personal statement and cv???
p.s i want to do the phd around london as i live here and my living expenses would be lower.
