Neuroscience PhD 🧠 | Social behaviour & the brain | From a small corner of rural Portugal
pinned post!
Parecia impossível pensar nisto uns meses atrás, mas esta semana defendi a minha tese de doutoramento. Tenho tanto a agradecer a tanta gente que me ajudou durante estes anos dentro e fora do laboratório. E sem dúvida à educaçao pública que sem ela não teria nunca chegado aqui. 🧠🐀🧀
