CNBC Postdoc Writing Group
Fridays, 2-4pm
Contact: Andrew Gerlach (arg151@pitt.edu)
Location is typically Zoom: https://pitt.zoom.us/j/5307316889 (Passcode: 1234)
Description: Two hour block dedicated to writing papers, grants, reviews, etc. We use the Pomodoro system of 25 min blocks with 5 min breaks in between to chitchat.
There’s a group of ~10 people who attend semi-regularly. On any given week, it’s typical to have 3-5 people. It’s used for accountability and setting aside a dedicated chunk of time for writing (although some people use it for analysis or whatever else they may need to focus on). It’s also been helpful in building a postdoc community.
Please reach out to Andrew with any questions!
