Abstract:

Academic life is exciting and rewarding but also challenging and sometimes opaque. This can be particularly true for young women just starting out as fresh PhDs. Most of us arrived at our first academic position with only a vague idea of how to navigate an environment that looks a whole lot different from the faculty side of the counter. In this discussion, we will have an open discussion about navigating academic life. No question is too basic or too silly, so bring your list along!
