"For me, Imperial College London is a beacon of modern research, attracting brilliant scientists from all over the world and providing them with unlimited opportunities through the provision of state-of-the-art technology and the creation of an encouraging environment. As a young person and a researcher at the beginning of my career, I wanted to be part of this environment because, on the one hand, I get the support here to develop my own ideas with the acceptance for mistakes and, on the other hand, I am offered first-class education to pursue and implement these ideas."
