Really lovely to be back at the 2026 Laidlaw Welcome Event and reflect on how much I’ve grown over the past year. The programme has pushed me outside my comfort zone, developed my research skills, and given me so many valuable experiences and friendships along the way.
It was also amazing to hear the incredible presentations from my cohort and the cohort above, and see the impact of everyone’s research and leadership projects.
A huge thank you to Matt and Beccy for organising such a great event and for all the support and hard work that makes the Laidlaw experience so special.
Good luck to the next cohort for your Summer of Research. Make the most of every opportunity, it will go quicker than you think!
