Staying Well & Staying Home

This week Adam Smith hosts this informal discussion with three lab-based researchers. Recorded remotely and discussing how they’re all managing to physically and mentally well, and how life has changed since the 23rd March.

Dr Katy Askew, Postdoctoral Research Fellow and PhD student Makis Tzioras both from The University of Edinburgh and Dr Isabel Castanho a postdoc researcher at University of Exeter joined the podcast remotely to discuss and share.

These three will be back again in a few weeks’ time to discuss in greater details, how they manage the pressures of academia with a focus on mental health and wellness.
