Dear friends and colleagues,
A few days have passed since my defence, and I'm still feeling overwhelmed by all the love and kindness you showed me. I wanted to reach out and properly thank each of you.
Thank you for joining me in my BIG day. It meant so much to see familiar faces in the audience.
I'm also deeply touched by your thoughtful and generous gifts. Thank you for those lovely surprises, they are perfect reminders of this milestone.
Most importantly, thank you for your friendship and support through all of this. You've made these years memorable in the best possible way.
My heartfelt thanks to each and every one of you.
Cheers, Mahtab -- Mahtab Yazdanian Doctoral Researcher Ecology and Genetics Research Unit University of Oulu
