Well done Dr Barry! Sayka has recently completed a PhD from Queen Mary (University of London) and is now working as a Postdoctoral Researcher at the Centre for Molecular Oncology & Imaging, Institute of Cancer, Barts and The London School of Medicine and Dentistry.

Sayka joined the ACCESS programme in 1997-98. This is what she said: ‘When I came for the interview for the Access to Science course I was asked where I would like to see myself in 5 years time... I said I will be doing my PhD... Finally I did receive a scholarship for a PhD but it took me 8 years (Access course to PhD) to come to this point’.

Congratulations Dr Coogan

If you're a regular on these pages you will know that Joy was an Access student who finished here in 1998. Since then Joy has gone on to do marvellous things with the opportunities an Access Certificate gave her.

She studied for a degree in Psychology at the University of East London. She liked it so much she ended up working there as a researcher and lecturer and, recently, gained her doctorate in Psychology.

This is a marvellous achievement for someone who once described herself as an 'ordinary mum of 5 children'.

Be surprised at what you can achieve at Tower Hamlets College.
