Excited to co-facilitate an upcoming Morgridge Institute for Research workshop for #graduatestudents, #postdocs, and #staffscientists on navigating conflict with confidence. Also, looking forward to learning from my colleagues, Jill Walder, SHRM-SCP & Alyssa Leystra, as we share strategies to turn difficult conversations into growth opportunities. 🌱 We will cover: ✨ A structured approach to resolving conflicts ✨ Mindfulness, self-reflection, and positive intent for better outcomes ✨ Real-world case studies to boost confidence in handling conflict Let's work together to build skills for collaborative workplaces! #ConflictResolution #ProfessionalDevelopment #EarlyCareerResearchers #STEM #GrowthMindset #TeamMorgridge

Meet Raison Dsouza, an assistant scientist in the Tim Grant Lab, who is developing computational methods to analyze cryo-electron microscopy images, trying to find specific particles in “noisy,” corrupted data. “Science is not just to solve a problem, but to understand what the problem is. And then once you find the solution, how does that work?” he says. He also develops software that leverages virtual reality to visualize molecular data and thrives in Morgridge’s interdisciplinary culture. Read Raison's story: https://lnkd.in/gZbBMhzz
