Wall of Success
I have always been fascinated by the possibilities of genomics technologies to explain the causes of human disease ever since these technologies became available. My ultimate goal is to advance medical science by integrating our knowledge on the impact of genome variation in routine clinical decision making. Last year I obtained a prestigious 1.5 million euro Starting Grant from the European Research Council (ERC) to help me accomplish this goal.
The Text Consultant helped me prepare a persuasive presentation for the ERC application process. He gave positive but critical feedback both on my personal performance and on the PowerPoint presentation, challenging me to achieve a level of professional distinction that matched the status of the application. I was extremely pleased with the outcome and, more importantly, so was the ERC Panel.
