    Following the great reception of this PDW in 2020, we are offering it again. In this workshop, we will explore the timing of family planning in academia with a focus on less-discussed challenges such as infertility, miscarriage, and other pregnancy complications. We will explore family planning at different stages of the academic career to better understand the costs and rewards associated with each stage. The panelists are chosen to represent various family planning trajectories. These scholars will share their family planning journey with the audience and provide guidance on strategies to effectively navigate family planning in academia.

    People at all stages of their careers are welcome. We expect the workshop to be particularly beneficial to Ph.D. students and junior faculty. If you know anyone who might benefit from this session, please pass this information on to them.

    NOTE: This session will not be recorded. 

    Date/Time: Friday, July 30 (9:00 - 11:25 EDT)
