The Parents in Science Slack exists to provide a space for parent scientists to socialize and share resources.
Being a parent in science has its own unique set of challenges, and we can begin to address those challenges by cultivating community and providing social support for one another.
Talk about your science. Talk about your kids. Talk about the interaction and the intersection of the two. Ask your peers how they’ve dealt with prioritizing family and career. Get tips on attending a conference with kids in tow. Vent when you need to; offer a listening ear when others need you.
