The next big step

I've been bit cryptic of what's come for me and that is because it has been relatively unclear to me just as well.

Now though.

I have been admitted as a PhD candidate at the University of Birmingham from Fall 2016.

My PhD will be in the School of Sport, Exercise and Rehabilitation Sciences. I will study and research the psychosocial factors in the use of banned substances. I am really appreciative of my opportunity to work with Dr. Ian Boardley. Dr. Boardley is internationally recognized for his work in the area. More accurately; what influences the decisions to dope, how does the attitude towards using doping products evolve during an athletic career and where are the crucial points in time, if one is to fall to use banned substances

This is something special for me. I am happy and ever enthusiastic to tell you about it. On personal level, it is huge. It is a big step towards what I aim to become one day. And maybe it is time to shed light on my dream in academia and sport.

One day my aim is to be perhaps the fastest doctor in the world.

It is easy to enjoy your coffee more, when you where you are heading.
