Yesterday was the @doctoralcollege Researcher Conference.

It was great to have excellent representation from SAPPHIRE PGRs @SocSciHealth

I enjoyed chairing a session of talks, and sharing my research via poster.

It was great to join the workshop on Epigenetics in Human Reproduction hosted by @Nuffbioethics today.

Really engaging discussion on the latest research, ethical considerations and future applications in this field!

Excellent talks yesterday at the Public Health Science ECR Day.

Finishing with @GavinCleaver's message to all PhD students: "you are the experts".

Grappling with imposter syndrome as a PhD student is a shared struggle, but remember: your work matters, your voice is valuable!

[Merissa Elizabeth Hickman @MerissaEHickman]
