In 2018 I went for three months’ placement in a Pharmaceutical company, Chlorochem Ltd. in Dublin, was a good experience during my PhD to become acquainted with the Irish pharmaceutical industry.

Finding international friends during study is very valuable. I found myself more open mind after sharing the cultures and ideas with my international friends. We also had many food parties to share international cuisine. We went to many memorable trips and having fun together!
I also have a hobby that doesn’t depend on the weather! I found Irish castle and scenery very nice to paint. At the first it was just as a hobby for me but I got very good impressions from others!

I graduated in January 2020. Receiving my doctoral degree was a significant accomplishment amd I am very proud of this.
