Play || Pause || Play: returning from a career break

Convener: Maarten Roos-Serote | Co-convener: Pedro Lacerda

Tue, 10 Sep, 16:30–18:00 (CEST)|Room Mercury (Konferenzraum III)

There are many reasons why people may need or want to take time off or deviate from the linear academic career path. Experience shows that returning to doing research after such a break is very tricky, even though people will have gained different and valuable experiences and perspective from a pause in their career.

The goal of this splinter session is to share personal stories, and start the discussion on how to address this underexposed issue.

This session is open to anyone interested.
