I think this is especially true of early stage PhD students. Every ECR event I have attended recently has included numerous students asking for support on imposter syndrome and anxiety/depression. You should not have to suffer to get an advanced degree.
Almost every grad student I know is depressed or burned out.
Here are 5 small things I use to trick myself into having a better work day.

I really enjoyed the Metabolomics 2022 conference. I learned a lot, caught up with old friends and the weather in Valencia was a bonus! I also got to present some of the work from my thesis.
This is a brilliant opportunity for an undergraduate student. I was the UGR in 2018 and gained a ton of experience and had A LOT of fun. The workload is perfectly manageable during your studies and the committee are all friendly and helpful. Join us! Happy to answer any Q's.

This is going to be a great event, and I can't wait to see everyone in person again. We have all missed opportunities to present work due to the pandemic, so if you have some data you want to share, submit an abstract and come along!
Only 3 days left to get your abstracts in for #SfAMECS2022! Our Early Career Scientists Research Symposium is organised by our #SfAMECS Committee especially for early career scientists to present their work! Register here: sfam.org.uk/career/early-car…
It was great to see what everyone has been working on. Thanks to the organisers and session chairs.
Two days of exciting science aka @RHULBioSci postgrad symposium are over! Many congratulations to the winners of the best talk prizes, including @sonia_shinhmar, @nancy_mcmulkin, @cecyliaw1, @_JakeBell1, @Stefmcc2, and @EdStrawBio 🎉🎉🎉
Another great reason to present at #SfAMECS2021 and a further example of how the society supports the ECS community. Abstract submission closes Monday, we want to hear what you are working on!
We're delighted to announce that we will be offering £100 to successful abstracts for oral presentations at #SfAMECS2021 - the deadline is this Monday so get your applications in while you can: bit.ly/SfAMECS2021

So cool! Spray on viral transfection for crop improvement.
New 'spray-on' viral transfection tech by Torti et al. could help speed breed crops like winter wheat or fruit trees by transiently manipulating key genes in the flowering pathway

Brassica colour diversity has led to some impressive varieties with improved nutritional properties (+anthocyanins in purple vars). Got to love these crops

When did this ever make sense?
Carried out my first DNA extraction in two years today... How has it been that long? Metabolomics has consumed me.

For extended Q&As or "meet the speaker" sessions they seem to work well, but networking in a packed virtual room is challenging. It can be a tough job for moderators to maintain engagement.
