Research Management for ESR

Academia is a very rich encouraging space but it can be dauting and disorienting sometimes when someone starts their PhD. A lot of time is spend reflecting, reading and analysing the object of one´s study as well as writing and rewriting fragments of their academic body. In addition to that, the majority of the time all this working time is very demanding and it is spent in solitary. This workshop aims to give ESRs practical on two specific areas such as research management and self-care, as they are equally important to reach the end of the PhD sucessfully. Some of the key aspects are going to be discussed in this activity include the PhD studies as a process and how to adapt, productivity tips, time management and perfectionism or the importance of mental health in academia.
