Just got my final letter from my STEM penpal.

I’m part of a program that pairs K-12 students with STEM professionals for mentorship through exchanged letters. My guy is interested in gaming technologies.

It’s cute and fun. I had a good time. I’m honored that I was invited.

My PhD student is stuck. How do I teach them perseverance and problem solving?

A new principal investigator wants to help PhD students to develop resilience and creativity in the laboratory without hovering or doing the work for them.
