This time, we have two great guests who share their very own experiences with doing a PhD: Dr Irene Battel has just recently finished her PhD at Trinity College Dublin, Ireland, and Beatrice Manduchi is right in the middle of her PhD at the University of Toronto, Canada.

They talk about the highs and lows and the importance of doing a PhD in the field of speech and language therapy and especially in dysphagia. They also share helpful information about the different systems in Europe and North America and give tips on how to find funding, a mentor and of course, motivation.

By the way, Irene and Beatrice have their own podcast! Go check out their podcast (it’s in Italian) “Disfagia in Evidenza”
