Changing the Culture of Chemistry:
Mental Health in the Lab
NOW AVAILABLE TO WATCH ON-DEMAND
An organization’s culture defines how it approaches problems in the workplace. Whether you’re the head of your own lab or a graduate student, workplace culture is something everyone can influence every time they go to work. That’s why ACS Publications is leading a series of webinars on the ways chemists can improve their lab’s culture and make their workplace increasingly diverse, safe, and sustainable.

The next webinar in our Changing the Culture of Chemistry series is dedicated to discussing Mental Health in the Lab.

Attendees will hear chemists in academia and industry speak about:
  • Research into the biological basis for depression, anxiety, and other mental health concerns
  • Advice for a creating a workplace culture that supports the mental well being of chemists
  • Tips for advocating for your own mental health, preventing burnout, seeking help when necessary, and more
This free one-hour program will end with a moderated discussion and an opportunity to ask questions of the panel.
