As women researchers, do you have any recommendations on how to better balance work and private life?

Hi, is there anybody who had Coursera last year and successfully applied again? I got a message from L'Oreal that I was selected, but few days after that a message  from Coursera saying: "Fondation L'Oréal has removed your membership in the The For Women in Science Academy program." Anybody in the same situation?

Dear all,I would like to know if someone in our community tried to apply for an ERC grant ? I am thinking more and more about it (ERC starting) but I am also very nervous about this process. Unfortunately, everytime I convince myselft that I should try it, the impostor syndrome comes back and with this post I am looking for someone who can share her experience (sucessfull or not) and give some advice.Thank you !Best wishes,

Dear all,In 2011, Prof Seirian Sumner and I, both FWIS alumnae, co-founded Soapbox Science,  a public outreach festival for promoting women scientists and the science they do. It is a fresh, no-frills grass-roots approach to bringing science to all people on the streets, especially those who wouldn’t otherwise have come across science in their daily lives. Our Soapbox Scientists are real-life scientists, who are at the cutting-edge of scientific research. You can read more about it here: http://soapboxscience.org/Over the past 10 years Soapbox Science has been established in 56 cities across the world and it is always looking to expand. It has  so far involved over 1600 scientists and reached over 200,000 members of the public.  We are interested in hearing from academics who would like to establish an event in their local area; we are also currently recruiting our speakers for our 2022 edition.If this is something you'd be interested in, either as a speaker or as a local organiser, please do get in touch :)CheersNathalie

Dear all,I would like to ask: are you the type of person who prefers to work: alone?as a team?Cheers!
