Hannay recalls the bonds between PhD students as some of her strongest memories from her time at the Centre:
“One of the best things that came from my time at the CIRHR was my friendship/writing relationship with Rosemary Venne (‘IRHR PhD 1993). While we were a couple of years apart in our Ph.D. programs, we have stayed in contact over the years. We have had the opportunity to publish several articles together and to visit in person through the years.”
Hannay and Venne continue to collaborate on papers and presentations:
