Thank you @j_parnz @sarasiddiqi12 and @rachelkardish for hosting such a great event!
Had such a fun afternoon hosting @SfNOttawa first ever Imposter Syndrome event for Neuro grad students where we had a panel of upper year grad students from our department talk about their experience with Imposter Syndrome throughout grad school and how they work to overcome it.
