Dr. Ridderās take on imposter syndrome: āWhen youāre in an environment that doesnāt reflect you and is hostile towards you, of course youāre going to feel like you donāt belongā Thereās nothing wrong with you. Itās the environment that needs to be fixed. ā¤ļø

Advice to aspiring neuroscientists from our #NeuroAcrossTheDiaspora panel āItās hard in the beginning, but you CAN do it. Ask for help when neededā @alexafluor532 āDonāt be afraid to acknowledge your flaws. Acknowledging them will then allow you to move past themā @AleroOfure
