Dr. Natalie Shenker

Natalie Shenker studied medicine at Oxford University, where she was awarded a First Class degree in Physiological Sciences and won a Scholarship in Clinical Medicine. Before entering surgical training she undertook an Honorary Research Fellowship at the Royal Children’s Hospital in Melbourne, Australia. The work that arose from this period has been presented nationally and internationally, and Natalie has twice won the conference prize for best presentation. She has published numerous papers herself as first author. Clinically, Natalie completed her Basic Surgical Training at St Thomas’ and Great Ormond Street Hospitals in London. She also demonstrated anatomy at Guy’s Hospital under the tutelage of Professor Harold Ellis and Professor Susan Standring, and then became a Member of the Royal College of Surgeons of England. She proceeded to win an Academic Clinical Fellowship in Pediatric Surgery based in Oxford and London, and secured grant money for projects studying the epidemiological nature of neonatal surgical disease. After overcoming a period of serious illness that pre-empted a change in career, she is now training in Reproductive and Developmental Biology at Imperial College, London. She also holds qualifications in counselling and psychotherapy. In terms of editing capability, she has a full grasp of American English spelling and grammar laws from her previous schooling in the USA.
