About geXc
The Genomic Exchange Community geXc is a grassroots initiative with an intent to improve Genomics through collaboration and innovation, providing a forum for sharing, learning, and networking. Since 2011, GeXc events hosted at leading Canadian institutions have convened nearly 5,000 scientists around a shared belief: that open exchange between academia and industry accelerates discovery.
We all deal with rejection in our lives. Maybe you didn't get into the grad school program of your choice, get that job you really wanted, or weren't able to secure that research opportunity you were hoping for. This workshop will help you to:
understand common reactions to rejection
learn practical, constructive ways to cope with rejection
explore self-care strategies
know when and where to seek support
increase your self-awareness and understanding of your experience
