Breakout Session 2.6: Research within community: how to cultivate a nurturing environment for your research
Abstract:
Even though it is rarely emphasized, having a supportive environment is crucial to one’s research success. While in a lot of cases we don’t really have 100% control over what lab environment, what peers, what advisors we end up finding ourselves in, there are still things we can do to cultivate an environment, a community, even a culture, that works for us.
