Mentorship in the PhD
There has been uproar on academic Twitter recently about a paper that concludes that males are better academic mentors than females for female protoges. It got me thinking about mentorship. Graduate students have an important role in the mentoring ecosystem.
A rambling post about dogs and foxes
My husband and I got a quarantine dog in May along with the rest of the country. He has provided many frustrations as well as many gifts, much like most things that are worth the effort.
Visual communication in science (is terrible)
When I first started graduate school, I could not believe the low-quality presentations and visuals that pretty much everyone was using. We would look more professional and be able to reach a wider audience if our visuals were more compelling. There are a lot of people working to improve this, and I have a few projects myself that are working toward better visual communication. #scicomm #sciart
