I’ve been feeling pretty nervous about this blog post coming out It took me months to put words to what I had to go through in grad school and this final draft still only represents a fraction of it But I hope it's useful to anyone who’s going through something similar

Dear colleagues in academia, if you’re frustrated about ongoing shutdowns and productivity loss in your lab this year (and next year), do me a favor: write it all down. Then look at these notes every time you review a grant or tenure case for a junior colleague for the next 3 yrs
