I thought with all the newbies arriving, myself being one of them, instead of everyone asking what ya do and where ya come from (very cilla-esque) i'd start a post, so im matt, going to cardiff and gonna be studying the proteins in the lens of the eye kinda sorta

Heya Matt, im starting a PhD at Reading in October. My project has something to do with snails, speciation, adaptation and AFLP markers...sorta!

I'll be in Leeds and doing stuff with endothelial cells!

You sure that's what you'll be studying Mrchipz?!!

yeah, well initially its what im meant to study

I'll be heading to Norwich playing with chickens and bacteria

I will study the relationship between music and fascism in Spain (probably) at Royal Holloway. As I'm a foreign (UE) student, I'm curious about how well will I get adapted to the UK...

I see there are not many humanities/social student around here.

Welcome Nomrod I am social science - there are a few of us lurking.
Your project sounds fascinating.
