I can't believe I'm finally Dr Higgins!
It's been a crazy ride, I couldn't have made it without the support of my friends and family, especially @UnaiDiazOrueta who started as my supervisor and ended as my family.
Here's to the next chapter, I can't wait to see what it brings!!

[Dawn Higgins @dawnlhiggins]

@UnaiDiazOrueta Couldn't have done it without you @UnaiDiazOrueta !!

[Dawn Higgins @dawnlhiggins]

@Cooganlab I'll never forget the relief I felt when I opened the Hume offer. As a single mum, without that funding, I would never have managed to do a PhD. From my perspective, it feels less like an attack on research and more another way to say poor people don't matter in research.

@UnaiDiazOrueta You are going to make me cry! 🥹 Thank you for always believing in me, and being there every step of the way. I wouldn't be here without you.
