by Lisa Kiltz I’m in the forth year of my PhD. By now, I’ve struggled with a lot of (self-imposed) stress, lack of resilience, sudden crying, and the feeling of being completely overwhelmed.

After two years of waiting, hoping, crossing fingers, getting disappointed, and presenting everything online, with no visual audience or fruitful discussions, I finally got the pleasure to attend real-life in-person conferences!
