🎓We have a new Doctor of Philosophy in the house! 🎉 🎉
🎉 Today we had the honour of witnessing Jiachen defend his PhD thesis with remarkable confidence, clarity, and scientific maturity. 🎓✨
▶️ Watching him stand before the defense committee and articulate years of hard work, across countries, cultures, laboratories, and countless scientific challenges, was a profoundly emotional moment. Jiachen's journey has been anything but easy, from China to Finland, and from Finland to the Netherlands… And every time, Jiachen rose to the challenge with optimism, humility, and an unwavering commitment to science. 🌍💪
▶️What has always made Jiachen exceptional is not only his scientific talent, but his character. His positivity, his respect and kindness toward colleagues, and his resilience in the face of experimental setbacks, all of these qualities shaped the researcher he is today.
▶️Today, as Jiachen earned the title of Doctor, I saw not only a brilliant scientist, but a person who has grown in leadership, independence, and confidence, while remaining the same warm, friendly, and respectful human being he was from the very beginning.
🎉 Jiachen, your journey has shown extraordinary strength, perseverance, curiosity, and heart. Your family, your co-supervisors, your collaborators, and our entire team can celebrate this achievement with full pride. 🌟
▶️ Thank you very much everyone who made this moment so special to Jiachen. As this chapter now closes, we proudly wish you all the best for your next endeavors. Keep shining, keep dazzling and astonishing us!🚀
Congratulations, Dr. Jiachen Li. You truly deserve this moment. 👏
