– Dan, Mcpin Foundation

“I would recommend anyone holding similar dreams to get their foot on this path as soon as possible: talk to people, keep thinking, shape your vision of what you want to do, be and become.”
“Reflectivity is an important part of the research process. People with mental health issues often have used reflection and self-reflection in treatment and therapy and can apply this well in research contexts.”
