Illuminate X Durham Regional Conference

Hi everyone! My name is Meghan Papagni and I am a Grade 11 student at Archbishop Denis O’Connor. Today, I had the pleasure to attend Illuminate x Durham’s regional conference. I really enjoyed be able to participate in todays conference!

I learned about the origin of stereotypes against adolescents and how to combat them as well as the benefits that come with being younger. I learned about imposter syndrome and how to combat it and how to express confidence through body language. I really enjoyed learning about Dr. Fradin work especially in fly embryo development. Thank you so much for this opportunity it was really amazing!
