From Autonomous University of Barcelona –> To University of Essex
The research week served me to shed light on my future as a researcher. I was inspired and given a great research line for the future. It was a week in which I not only learnt from the exchange and the connection with another research team but in which I managed to charge batteries and feel my research was relevant. It has been a great week for my professional development as a young researcher in which I have been inspired in personal and work-related aspects.
