The Cosmic Savannah - Ep. 52: Head Space
The 365 Days of Astronomy - A podcast by 365DaysOfAstronomy.org
In this week’s episode, we take a step back from astronomy and focus on mental health in academia and beyond. We are joined by Dr. Jack Radcliffe, an astronomer from the University of Pretoria. Jack speaks to us about his work on galaxy evolution, as well his recent efforts to speak out about mental health challenges facing academics in particular. Jacinta and Dan also share their own mental health challenges, and we discuss how these can be managed and overcome.
