PhD project canceled or disrupted by funding cuts? You’re not alone.

Hello everyone,

Based on current policy, One of my close friends recently had their PhD project unexpectedly canceled due to sudden funding cuts. Watching how it impacted them — the confusion, anxiety, and deep sense of loss — made me wonder:

How many other PhD students are quietly going through something similar?

I’m building an anonymous support community where we can share stories, feel seen, and help each other through this uncertain time.

If you’re a current or upcoming PhD student affected by project disruption or cancellation, could you take 2–3 minutes to answer this anonymous survey?

Your voice matters. Even if you’re just curious, your experience might help someone feel a little less alone. 💙
