Time goes by too quickly and it’s already time for the final keynote and closing ceremony of the conference! Koen Wauters will discuss COVID-19 from a science-journalistic perspective. 🗞 After that, it’s time to close, and there may be awards involved… Don’t miss it! 🏆

Second and final day of ECHC! We’re curious - how many sessions of this conference have you attended so far? 🧐 🧮 We’d love to know!

[Sofie_Vranken @SofieVranken_]

Why do young people share alcohol use on social media? Are heuristic or more reasoned mechanisms at play? I will provide some answers on these questions tomorrow at the @ECHC2021 (11.15h-12.15h).

Congratulations to the winning team! We had wonderful teams attending our quiz! 🕹🙌

[Paulien Decorte @pauliendecorte]

Time to quiz it up! @Laurannat and I are ready for you in the separate zoom link you received! See you soon! 🕹🤓

[Elena Semino @elenasemino.bsky.social @elenasemino]

The discussion of failure in academia @ECHC2021 was personal, honest & uplifting. It should be normal to talk about it.

For the record, my own examples were a journal desk-rejection that didn't hurt much and a grant rejection that still hurts. But some good has come out of both.

[Paulien Decorte @pauliendecorte]

Many thanks to @elenasemino for your inspiring session about academic failures today at @ECHC2021! Empowering to get to openly talk about these kinds of insecurities together ✨💫

[Gudrun Reijnierse @GReijnierse]

Earlier today, Nynke Bos presented the results of her first PhD study @ECHC2021. Her first presentation at an international conference, and she rocked!🤩Proud co-supervisor - with @oerlemansanke, Lisa Vandeberg and Marlies Hulscher @IQhealthcare @Radboud_Uni @CLSRadboud

[Marloes @MarloesvWezel]

A day of two extremes today, I got to present our work on COVID-19 conspiracy beliefs and media use at @ECHC2021 (which I consider an accomplishment😜) and I shared my grant rejection in a very valuable and interesting PhD panel about academic failures with @elenasemino #GoodDay

[Julia van Weert I @[email protected] @JuliavanWeert]

I had to leave a bit early to join some work meetings, but I’ve had a very interesting day @ECHC2021. Especially enjoyed presentations from @isabelle_cuykx, @KatrienMaldoy, @GaelleOuvrein, and @pauliendecorte. 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
