A huge congratulations to Bhavya Dhaka on passing her PhD viva yesterday 👏 !
Bhavya did her PhD at University College Dublin under the supervision of Rory Johnson and her research project was on “Predicting and Decoding Perturbation Responses: Computational Frameworks for Gene Regulatory Mapping”. Her examiners were Professor Leopold Parts from the Wellcome Sanger Institute and Oleksii Rukhlenko from UCD and the viva was chaired by Eoin Brennan.
Over the course of her PhD, Bhavya has been a valued member of our CRT community, not least through her role as student representative on the CRT Training Committee. We’re very grateful for the time, energy, and perspective she brought to the committee and to supporting her fellow students.
We’re delighted to see her begin the next stage of her career by taking up a position in industry. Given her talent, dedication, and drive, we’re confident she will be a tremendous success in whatever path she chooses to pursue.
Well done Dr Dhaka and we wish you every happiness and success in the years ahead!
