So this is my first article for the Oxford Student and is much longer than my other articles so far! It is also on a subject matter that really interests me as it incorporates the concept of science transgressing boundaries beyond the limits of previous human endeavour and the ethical issues that accompany that. Link is below!

Description
I'm Lauren (or "Loz", hence the blog title) and I am a 19 year old student currently studying Human Sciences at the University of Oxford. I aspire to be involved in a career concerning science and media, so this blog is a way for me to gain experience communicating science in an informative but accessible way. While there are some posts concerning current news stories or articles I've written, it is mostly intended to be an educational blog, with a focus on genetics, as this is my key area of interest and I hope to do a masters in genetics after my undergraduate degree. My aim is to explain genetics to a target audience with perhaps little prior scientific knowledge and an interest in furthering their understanding in this field. The posts are not necessarily chronological and pictures used are mostly sourced from the internet (although are hand-drawn in some cases). If you are interested in reading articles I've written, search "article" and it should come up with them in numbered order! I hope this blog proves to be useful in some capacity; let me know if you have any questions and any feedback or advice is always very welcome!
