The 75th Annual Meeting of the International Society of Electrochemistry in Montreal Canada was the first large conference I attended outside of Europe and it was an incredible opportunity for my career and personal growth. It was very exciting to see and talk to many of the academics that I have read about and who’s research has provided many ideas for my own PhD. It was an excellent chance for me to engage in networking and make contacts with people in my field. I was able to expand my scientific knowledge through the many interesting talks I attended, both relevant for my research and unrelated to my field. I also had the privilege of giving an oral presentation, I received several insightful questions and comments which will help with designing my next experiments and writing up papers. Overall, the conference was very motivational and inspirational for me because it was amazing to meet so many people from around the world who are in a similar position to myself.
On a more personal note, I really enjoyed sightseeing in Montreal and getting to experience the local culture through live music, wall paintings and spectacular views of the city from Mount Royal and waterfront.
