The biggest thing to take away from the Career Development 101 workshop is networking. Networking is so important as it is a chance to meet new people and build connections. Not being afraid to reach out to talk to others is one thing that I have struggled with in the past but am currently working on.
The Getting Published workshop showed me how difficult is truly is to get published. Even when you think you have the coolest new findings out there, other people have different opinions, many of which are harsh critiques of your work. Getting published is also so important in terms of getting grants, but knowing that everyone faces the same kinds of problems when trying to get published gave me the chance to learn from their experiences.
