Hosted by the ANS Young Members Group Experiencing some sort of disruption due to Covid may be the thing we all have the most in common. Whether it was transitioning to online classes, parenting while navigating online study, having your laboratory temporarily closed, or foregoing a highly anticipated internship, the possible disruptions seem countless and could certainly be overwhelming. Join us for a discussion on the research, academic, and scholarly disruptions that students, and even faculty, have faced over the last year. We're prompting our panelists to share what disruptions most influenced their day to day lives and career plans. In addition, we hope everyone can share their academic "Covid hacks" so to say, and express some alternative directions, coping strategies, and over-all words of affirmation and encouragement for managing these disruptions. We will kick off the panel with a few virtual polls for our attendees to gauge how everyone has been and continues to be impacted, to make for a customized and interactive discussion.
