      It helps me come up with new ways of explaining my work. It’s also been great for remotivating myself and getting myself excited about my research again. When you are researching you can become lost in the small details and forget about the bigger picture and how exciting the work can be.

      Yes, it’s helped me remotivate myself! I’ve been a bit in a slump because I am writing my thesis and that can sometimes get a bit boring. But it’s amazing to be part of this, and hearing all your questions is putting my work into a new (and exciting!) perspective.

      It’s easy to get stuck in your science/engineering bubble at work. The chats help shake you out of it and think about the bigger picture and engaging with more people!

      It’s cool explain your ideas in different ways and see what actually interests people about my work.
