Working as a part of NHSBT Genetics team, I have already managed to get a first-hand experience to work directly on the automated laboratory settings with the expert in the fields. This has only managed to inspire me further to enhance my career progression and develop a keen eye to learn further techniques and analysis. Thus, working as a genetic technologist will further help me widen my knowledge about the current issues in genetics as a whole and give me an opportunity to experience first-hand

Mary Shelly wrote the Gothic tale Frankenstein. In the novel, who is the true villain, the Monster or Victor Frankenstein? Which character do you have the most sympathy for? Mary Shelly wrote the novel “Frankenstein” using gothic techniques. Nearly 200 years after the book was first published in 1818 the readers still debate about the real villain of the story.

For my dissertation I will be comparing the books Frankenstein by Mary Shelly, The Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde, and finally 1984 by George Orwell. All three books I believe share a common theme which will be the subject of my dissertation. They all hold many themes but the main ones I will be looking at are the perils of playing god, abuse of power, and lastly manipulation and control. One of the main themes of Frankenstein written by Mary Shelly in 1816 is the fall of man which can be

Gain and loss are intimately connected and in a constant struggle for balance.

For instance in Frankenstein and The Strange Case of Dr. Jekyll and

In the play, a doctor called Victor Frankenstein created life from an experiment, a monster, and although Frankenstein had intended the monster (who wasn't to be called 'the monster') to be a kind, caring and loving creature, the way the villagers treated him and turned away in disgust

Is the Quest for Power Worth the Journey? Historian John Dalberg-Acton once said, “absolute power corrupts absolutely” (Figgins). This phenomenon is found in the novels Frankenstein, Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde, and Twilight. In each of these works a protagonist is struggling with an antagonist, in some cases an external foe, in others, himself. Dr. Jekyll, Carlisle and Dr. Frankenstein are each struggling with the power they acquired as a result knowledge they obtained. While knowledge is an essential
