The FEBS Education Special Session on ‘Wellbeing in times of change: Finding balance in an unbalanced academic world’ takes place on Tuesday 7 July 2026. As well as talks from Cormac Taylor (University College Dublin, Ireland) and Kay Guccione (University of Glasgow, UK), the programme will include interactive moments and discussion with the audience, with the aim of moving beyond reflection alone toward practical, shared approaches for fostering healthier and more sustainable academic environments. Find more details on the Special Sessions webpage.

The FEBS Education and Training Committee are gathering perspectives from across the academic community for the session through a short survey. The results will help shape the discussion during the session and provide valuable insights into the challenges and opportunities facing students, researchers, educators, and academic leaders.
