Indeed, two truly excellent graduates! So proud to have been part of this journey which would not have been possible without @ITNeLADDA. Pay close attention to Fatih's mortar board, which marks all the training events and lab visits that @ITNeLADDA organised during his PhD.

So chuffed about the students in my Masters course. Here's a sample of flyers they created addressing common concerns about bilingual language development. Watch this space for videos they are putting together on the uniqueness of human language!
