There are many aspects of the current research culture that negatively impact on the mental health of researchers.
At Cambridge, we have set out our ambitions for creating a better research culture in an institutional action plan.
This Mental Health Awareness Week, Equality & Diversity are hosting an event to explain how these ambitions relate to supporting the mental health of researchers.
Liz Simmonds (Postdoc Academy) and Yi Ting Chua (PdOC Society) from the University's research culture working group, will discuss how the plan aims to improve different aspects of research culture, and following from that help to improve researchers' mental health.
Join them on Wednesday 12 May, 9-10am.
