It’s that time of year when Canadians/aspiring Canadians start thinking about #Banting Postdocs! As a current @SSHRC_CRSH Banting who’s been mulling things over for 2 years, here’s my hot take on the major flaws in this program & what you should know before you apply. 🧵1/12
For those unaware, the Banting is a prestigious postdoc fellowship funded thru the 🇨🇦 Tri-Councils @SSHRC_CRSH @NSERC_CRSNG & @CIHR_IRSC. Started in 2010, it’s intended to help Canada become a global research leader by attracting & developing talent. canada.ca/en/news/archiv… 2/12
Importantly, these agencies have a separate standard postdoc fellowship which are already hard to get. I held a @SSHRC_CRSH postdoc before my @SSHRC_CRSH Banting & was surprised to find basically no diff between them except pay (w the Banting equivalent to most US postdocs). 3/12
Thrilled to participate in today’s @PMTC2021 conference and talk about meeting students where they are at (figuratively and literally). My research ranges from #bioarchaeology to #MedHist (bones to books) and I love bringing theatre to the classroom! #PandemicMethodologies 
My greatest insecurity preparing for teaching in Fall 2020 was how to create a sense of community in the classroom for a course that had never before been delivered online. Summer 2020 reading: #MOOCs! #CourseDesign! #Tech! #UniversalDesign! #Stress! #PandemicMethodologies
Reimagining “Intro to Anthro of Health” required boldness. I looked to @DanielPaulOD’s unessay (tinyurl.com/4b2uezvv): to throw out the rules of essay writing and welcome speculative work. This semester was the right one to take a risk. #PandemicMethodologies
