The Artemis Project: Wise Women don't Whisper! Survey

Thank you so much for passing on your experience to those just a few years behind you. ECRs tell us that what they really need is to understand, in a detailed and personal way, how their more experienced colleagues coped with the demands of everyday life whilst succeeding in their research careers. That need has motivated this work.

Please be as open as you can, your response is 100% anonymous!

The Artemis Project is on a mission to unlock the proportion of female academics experiencing success with large grants, and other measures of esteem. Read more about how here: https://onlineaccess.researchinfocus.com/artemis-project-home

Your letter and any contextual info you'd like to add.

If your letter doesn't fit (we've selected the largest amount of text available on this platform), please feel free to email it to artemis@researchinfocus.com we will store all letters securely and anonymously so they cannot be linked back to the author.

2.To ensure consistency of data with other sector specific research we've adopted HESA's definitions of sex, viewable here: https://www.hesa.ac.uk/support/definitions/staff. Please select the category in which you are included in HESA data:

Any contextual info that you think would help us e.g. if you have lived as multiple genders you may be able to compare and contrast experiences. We would be grateful to receive such perspectives, where you are comfortable to share through this 100% anonymous survey.
