Very happy that I could be your bridge to @ISTAustria. Interacting with you as a parent before ISTA, and later working with you was great fun. Keep inspiring, Lukas
Starting a career in academia isn't always about following the conventional path—it's about following your curiosity! And that's exactly what brought Lukas here. Watch this video and find out about his journey to becoming a PhD student at @ISTAustria. 🔗 https://t.co/eG9GYM6sAU
