In September 2020, I was accepted to the Master’s program βAdvanced experimental and computational Biosciencesβ of the Department of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, a PhD-oriented program considered one of the most interesting and demanding ones in our department. It is a remarkable program and during those two years, due to the rigorous training we obtained from our professors and all the knowledge they happily transferred to us, I was able to develop new skills and a newfound passion for science, which proved important tools for my PhD studies.
