“After submitting my manuscript last week, this international final is really the cherry on the cake! It was a unique opportunity not only to meet PhD students from a wide range of disciplines and nationalities, but also to present my work in front of my family in Morocco, which was very moving for me.

Once again, I’m extremely lucky to have such an exceptional professional, family and friendly environment, and this has enabled me to take this wonderful adventure all the way to the end. Thank you!” Camille Lakhlifi
