@PenlingtonChris @DrJuliaPalmer Learn to detect the signal and ignore the distracting noise of other opportunities that are less relevant to your end goal!

[OPEN Network @OPENNetwork_OFP]

Now @DrJuliaPalmer is facilitating a panel of experienced orofacial pain researchers for their perspective on how to progress your career and what qualities are helpful for an early career researcher.

@PenlingtonChris @DrJuliaPalmer Not everyone goes at the same speed or takes the same route, and that's okay!

[OPEN Network @OPENNetwork_OFP]

@PenlingtonChris @DrJuliaPalmer Look to trusted mentors to read back to you what your CV is saying to them - they will have a perspective that will help you make the most of your opportunities and choose your path

@PenlingtonChris @DrJuliaPalmer Rejections and disappointments are inevitable so don't be disheartened, you will learn from the setbacks maybe more than successes. Also grant applications take practice and will give you good opportunities for feedback.
