Important discussion! What behaviour traits can help people recognise a toxic PI before they get in too deep? And how can people stuck with an abusive PI navigate this?

If have any comments/stories that you would like to voice anonymously please DM us & we will post it for you! Toxic behaviour can come in many forms. It can include microagressions or constant insensitive 'joking' but can also be much more serious such as harassment in awful cases. NONE OF IT is acceptable! The 'someone has it worse' attitude only lets abusuers continue.
