The process spanning from submitting our work, to preparing a poster to summarize our ndings and to explain it to fellow scholars and students was an invaluable learning experience. Preparing to explain our work in a concise yet informative way and to elaborate on any questions from the audience helped me to understand the importance of our work even more. The experience of attending an academic conference for the rst time was also interesting. The social atmosphere to freely discuss science was particularly inspiring. Spending three days with experts in scienti c research and listening to their ideas sparked my curiosity to further pursue research.
