Dr. Roel Snieder visited campus for the workshop “Wellbeing Across the Research Career” in April. In this lunch workshop, participants examined some of the communal beliefs that academic faculty hold, beliefs that tend to elevate our stress levels, and then discussed strategies to find a more sustainable work/life harmony.

Dr. Roel Snieder is an award-winning geophysicist and distinguished chair of professional development education at Colorado School of Mines.

We want to thank all of the participants for engaging in such a lively discussion. The participants came from various academic disciplines, including but not limited to biochemistry, geosciences, English, philosophy, and microbiology, immunology, & pathology.
