Join a conversation-style discussion moderated by Professor Meghan Duffy, (University of Michigan, Ecology and Evolutionary Biology) and guests, that connects early graduate student well-being initiatives with current realities and future possibilities. This thoughtful reflection among colleagues will bridge historical perspectives with ongoing efforts to support graduate student mental health and success.
