The YSI Early Career Days provide an opportunity to confront these issues as a community by sharing experiences, building resources and providing support to navigate these early career challenges. This second iteration of the Early Career Days consists of a two-day program with talks on and panels that are open to young scholars everywhere as well as interactive workshops on topics like mental health, teaching, and writing skills.
As young scholars we are confronted with many challenges: publishing, teaching, the job market, work-life balance and institutional barriers, often we face these demands alone and without much institutional or even moral support.
