Hello everyone! Thank you for watching this video! My name is Isa and I have a progressive neuromuscular disorder called mitochondrial disease. In this video I talk about why, after two years, I decided to become a PhD student. I talk about why I left higher education as a disabled person and why I'm coming back. It has been a long process and took a lot of therapy and reflection. I am so excited to start this new journey. Do you have any questions about the graduate school application process? Leave them below!
