    Name: Carmel Cardona

    Programme and year: MSc Gender 2020

What are you currently doing and where?

I'm in my 2nd year of a PhD at King's College London in the department of Global Health and Social Medicine. I'm researching the remaking of the self after cancer, with a focus on pleasure, embodiment and creativity.

How do you use what you learned at LSE Gender in your current role?

My research project is driven by a feminist ethics of care, and a lot of what I learnt during my MSc at LSE underpins my work.

What advice do you have for current and/or prospective LSE Gender students?

Be open to your path being different than you expected! I did not expect to have taken the path I did, but I remained open and changed course several times while at LSE and beyond.
