Dr Gaia Brezzo - Teaching as an ECR, why take the time to do it?

Dr Gaia Brezzo - Teaching as an ECR, why take the time to do it?

Dr Gaia Brezzo narrates her blog written for Dementia Researcher.

As Gaia mentioned in her first blog, she had a slightly different PhD experience to most. Her funding and course enrolment fees were paid for by a Teaching Fellowship. This provided four years in which to run experiments, write up a thesis and teach for up to 180 hours in her department every year. In this blog, Gaia explores how this joint research-teaching experience helped her as an ECR, shaped her research and career to date and opened up other avenues and opportunities along the way - it also includes a few tips on how to get teaching.

Raised in Italy, Gaia came to the UK to complete her undergraduate degree, and thankfully, stuck around. Gaia writes about her work and career challenges, when not biking her way up and down hills in Edinburgh. Follow Gaia on Twitter: @Gaia_Brezzo
