Do you think managing mental health and wellbeing should be part of PGR and ECR professional development?

A rather disgruntled anonymous academic responded to our survey to tell us it really shouldn't be. We strongly disagree!

A further message from the team...

[WHISPERS @Sheff_WHISPERS]

We've been quiet for a while and sadly we'll be staying quiet.
With half our team finishing their PhDs and the rest moving into their final years, we can no longer commit the time needed to continue WHISPERS.
If you would like to take over, please get in touch. But for now...

[WHISPERS @Sheff_WHISPERS]

Here's the July issue of WHISPERS. We've got some great advice for presenting your PhD, a guide to Crookes, and our usual selection of recipes. #phdchat

Also, a friendly reminder to book your vaccines to fully enjoy the summer!

Loving the responses to our "How are we doing" survey. It's heartwarming to hear how much people are enjoying our content. We've taken stuff on board and have some changes planned.
Don't worry vegans, we hear you, get ready for more plant-based recipes! Or send in your own 😉
