Meet our graduate researchers

When considering a PhD, choosing the right place to study is a major factor.

The Doherty Institute is home to graduate researchers from all over the world with different backgrounds, interests and motivations. We asked our current graduate researchers to tell us about their research, explain why they chose to study at the Doherty Institute and also provide some advice to prospective PhD applicants.
