@franz_mazz @imperialcollege Thanks @franz_mazz ! I loved your commentary as well, thank you! It was a really engaged session #AcademicWellbeing

[Vienna BioCenter Scientific Training @TrainingVbc]

Thursday morning saw the start of the Well Being in Academia workshop led by Desiree Dickerson @DickersonPsych. The focus was on #impostersyndrome and #perfectionism both of which are important topics in #academia; there were many interesting and helpful tips.

So many gems from @DickersonPsych at tonight’s @FranklinWomen webinar 💎 Reframing the narrative around saying no ➡️ the right “no” can be a meaningful “yes” to other important priorities👇🏻 #FWSayNo

[Franklin Women @FranklinWomen]

It is hard to say no to the many tasks or opportunities that come your way. But, saying no is important so your own priorities don't derailed but also for your wellbeing ❤️

So, we are starting 2023 with a webinar on the Power of Saying No👊👉https://t.co/rohp095PrZ #WomenInSTEMM

Can anyone point me to stats/pubs on the #Neurodivergent population and #Gifted population in #Academia? Gestimates of size of undiagnosed population? Love to hear stories of late diagnosis too.

Join #OILS22 workshop and learn about strategies for well-being in research🧘‍♀️from Dr. @DickersonPsych - a 🧠 neuroscientist and a clinical psychologist who supports academic institutions and academics themselves pursuit a healthier approach to research. #OpenScience #resilience

[Dr Emma Francis @emmarubyfrancis]

Please RT. PhD students funded by @UKRI_News face a cash crisis. They are working full-time, yet earning less than living wage. With the rising cost of living and increasing pressure to deliver high quality research that benefits society, something needs to change. THREAD (1/10)

@JulieR282 My inner critic makes the thought of doing a podcast big and scary 😅 but it’s definitely something I’m exploring!! Thanks for being there today, it was a great session #AcademicMentalHealth

[Desiree Dickerson PhD @DickersonPsych]

I can’t think of anything more flattering than someone taking the time to summarise my thoughts! Thank you @CerebralNurse and thank you @AucklandUni - a really nice way to start the day #AcademicMentalHealth
