The #Hackademics Series: Hacks for succeeding in academia
Does the academic career path seem like a mystery? An unsolvable puzzle? Maybe you could use some insider insight as to how to make it all work? AABA has the webinar series for you: #Hackademics
Building off of the series recently published in the American Journal of Human Biology by our sister organization the Human Biology Association, in early 2022 AABA hosted a four-part webinar series of discussions by those same authors.
