#ifeelthat Discussion Series: Productivity during COVID-19
Alone, together. Isolation is affecting us all, and we've heard that graduate students and post-docs in our community are feeling the pressure to stay productive during this difficult time. This is the first installment of WiM's virtual #ifeelthat Discussion Series, where we'll be holding space for an open conversation about personal trials and triumphs with Productivity during COVID-19.
Virtual WiM Town Hall
We think it's safe to say that quarantine has challenged us all: if not in our physical health, certainly in our science, in our personal lives, and in our mental health. WiM is holding a virtual town hall meeting for our community to air out any concerns, and to let us know what events we can do and what resources we can give to help everyone during this time.
