Skill development

An aspect of your own experience that demonstrates this skill :
Throughout my 1st year of PhD journey, I have set clear research and career objectives while regularly reviewing them with my supervisor. I have expanded my technical expertise by learning advanced simulation methods like Molecular dynamics simulations, scientific programming (e.g., Python, C++), and data analysis, and complemented these with transferable skills in scientific writing and presenting posters at international conferences. I actively seek feedback from supervisors and colleagues to improve my work and professional development. By participating in international scientific events, I have strengthened my professional network and gained experience working in an international research environment, preparing me for diverse career opportunities.
I believe I have reached the PHASE 1 of development of this skill.
