Are you in marine science and have kids? We are looking for a diverse panel to speak with grad students who are interested in learning about balancing family life with a marine science career. Every journey to starting a family is unique and we would love to represent that!

[Heather Koldewey @HeatherKoldewey]

So much groundbreaking, thought-provoking and brilliant yet humble science from @ChristinacHicks plenary #IMCC6. But her final slide made me go straight to @aKIDemicLife and their website - what an incredible resource! But 1st, must check on the kids...!

If you’re struggling to get to that #conservation paper bc of COVID issues (care of kids/elderly; stress etc), maybe this initiative can help?

Help with editing, formatting, figures etc- might make the difference!
