Setbacks and rejection in academia: Surviving, learning, and moving forward – during and after a PhD
Networking meeting with Dr. Christine Bonsu
Getting the PhD done is a milestone to celebrate. But how do you actually find the necessary perseverance to focus on this goal and find inspiration and motivation even during this stressful time and beyond?
We are honored that Christine Bonsu will share her experiences with us and describe her most important insights along the way. With this, she hopes to encourage others in particular to never give up and to keep pursuing their goals.
