"The IBET Momentum Fellowship has had a very positive impact on my PhD experience. It has afforded me the opportunity to be in spaces with people with whom there is inherent understanding through shared experiences, connecting me with a network of peers and mentors at Western and beyond. The comfort in the unspoken understanding cannot be overstated."
 
- Emma Donnelly, IBET Momentum Fellow
