Editorial

Dear member of the SENSE community,

Last month we showed you how to benefit from the digital world as a scientist. This month, you can read hints and tips about working at home. In short: keep yourself informed, use technology and create a healthy home office environment, routine and focus. Lastly, stay in touch with each other, by having virtual tea breaks with your direct collegues for instance. Do you have additional tips or do you want to share what your PhD life looks like at the moment? You can share your story on the SENSE Facebook page or read/see what others are posting.

Due to COVID-19 measures, courses, events and PhD graduations are organised differently, are postponed or canceled. We do our best to give accurate information in this newsletter, but please always check the sources for the latest update.
