Besides allowing me to pursue my passion in Neuroscience, the Neurasmus program exposed me to multiple factors important to become a successful researcher. It allowed me to attend lab rotations where I got to work hand in hand with experts in the field and attend well-structured courses that profoundly deepened
my knowledge, developed my critical thinking, and challenged the ways I thought of science. It provided me with the great challenge of going out of my comfort zone,
allowing me to study and live in two new countries, at the same time immersing myself in new cultures and learning new languages. Besides that, it allowed me to
learn from and share my experience with local and international students from various educational and cultural backgrounds. I believe that its highly
interdisciplinary program and its multicultural perspective allowed me to obtain the knowledge needed to develop the focus of my interest, prepare me to pursue PhD in
future, and one day succeed as a researcher in Neuroscience. I am extremely happy and proud to be part of this program and the Neurasmus family.
