Congrats to Dr. Briana Chen @BriKChen on a successful PhD defense! #PhDone
It still doesn’t feel real, but yesterday I successfully defended my thesis. I’m so grateful for everyone who supported me in grad school - friends, family, and of course @okaysteve and my thesis mentor @DrChristineAnnD. I couldn’t have done it without them ❤️
