In this edition of Careers in Your Ears, Kate Murray talks with Alexandria Mitchell, PhD student in the Comprehensive Cancer Centre at King's College London, about her reasons for deciding to do a PhD, the application process, how she funded herself, and how being a PhD satisfies her desire for research autonomy. Alexandria also considers some of the differences in studying in the UK, from the US, and talks about what's needed for a more diverse research environment.
