Academic freedom is absolutely essential to protect the development of knowledge, and is something that I really value." Belgian researcher at the Université Libre de Bruxelles (ULB), Belgium Anne-Marie Jeannet "The way that Europeans reconcile work and life is really different. I've felt it much easier to live in this balanced way. Research is done, but family life, friends and socialising are a really important part of European life." US researcher at the University of Milan, Italy Edor Kabashi "The ERC funding that I was awarded was instrumental for my team to be selected by the scientific board of the Imagine Institute. Being selected by such a prestigious scientific panel, it gives you the belief that you are doing meaningful and fundamental research that drives, helps and betters our society." Albanian researcher at the Imagine Institute, Paris Jennifer Kefauver "At the moment I think it's probably one of the best places in the world to come and do science. It's got dynamism, it's got a lot of people that are well-trained and it's making the investments." US researcher at the Health Research Institute of Asturias (ISPA) in Oviedo, Spain Nicolás Rascovan "I think that in Europe there is a better balance than in other places in terms of life, personal life and professional life." Argentinian researcher at the Institut Pasteur, Paris Martha Mayorquín Torres "This is the dream of every scientist, to have all the resources at your disposal. Europe is one of the places where you can find such a thing. You don't realise the impact that Europe has in science and in the pharmaceutical field until you are here." Mexican researcher at the Faculty of Bioscience Engineering in Ghent University, Belgium Andrew Michael Liebhold "I'm exposed to a whole community of scientists that otherwise I wouldn't have a chance to interact with and collaborate. I'm working with students and postdocs from all over the world. And to be honest, I never had that kind of opportunity in the US before." US researcher at the Czech University of Life Sciences
