Target group
PhD candidates, postdocs, and staff scientists - especially in the life sciences and similar domains such as biology, biomedical sciences, and medicine.

They will identify the activities they should stop doing to avoid wasting their time and energy. Finally, they will critically analyze whether their chosen career path and the expected rewards are worth the effort according to their values.

Methods
