This week we discuss all things ECR with Mayank Chugh & Gracielle Higino, two current postdocs who are leading the efforts in fighting for a better environment for ECRs in academia.   Gracielle is an ASAPbio fellow and program co-ordinator at BIOS2, a community of researchers who are exploring and applying modern-day computational and quantitative techniques to address the challenges of biodiversity sciences. You can find her on Twitter @GracielleHigino and online https://www.graciellehigino.com/. Learn more about BIOS2 - https://bios2.usherbrooke.ca/.  Mayank is the President of the Harvard Medical Postdoc Association (HMPA). He also leads a DEIB working group in the department of systems biology towards fair recruitment of postdocs and faculty. He is an advocate for mental health awareness, equity, and a plethora of much needed changes in the current academic system - many listeners will already be familiar with his various writings and contributions to articles written by journalists. Mayank is also a poet and can be found on Twitter @mayank_mchugh and online https://www.mayankchugh.org/.  Implicit bias test https://implicit.harvard.edu/implicit/takeatest.html or learn more https://implicit.harvard.edu/implicit/user/jaxt/blogposts/piblogpost021.html This episode was produced by Jonny Coates and edited by Sónia Gomes Pereira.  If you enjoyed this show then hit that subscribe button and leave a review (on Apple Podcasts or Spotify).
