Demystifying Research: Dialogue on training, careers, and all things research
What is Demystifying Research? Hosted by Kelly Harris PhD CCC-SLP and Catherine Hoyt, PhD OTD OTR/L, ‘Demystifying Research’ is a space where we ‘dialogue on training, careers, and all things research.’ Everything from “is research right for me’ to ‘how to apply,’ ‘mentorship,’ ‘which research degree is right for me,’ and ‘managing failure.’ This is a space where we engage in discussions around the questions we all have or have had when considering a career in research and science. As clinician scientists we seek to answer questions and address issues that aren’t clearly addressed in more formal spaces, things that weren’t addressed in our clinical training, questions that we may not know how or where to begin to seek answers. This is not a space only for scientists and researchers, but for anyone who may be interested in science and research. We are so glad you have joined us.
