We welcome 2–4 page position papers on topics related to accessible data visualizations. Building on the momentum of last year’s workshop, this year we aim to go beyond paper presentations — fostering richer community and shaping the future of accessible data visualization.

So, like…what’s the job that allows you to actually do research for a living? Not going to meetings, overseeing other people’s research, emails, reviewing other people’s ideas, etc…but actually DOING your OWN research? Asking for a friend* *me

might be the Gen Z in me, but if your mental health gets bad: just cancel your meetings, ignore your emails & slack messages, then go to an island for 10 days. the research will still be there when you get back. care more about yourself than the deadline. P.S. IT WORKS!! 🫶🏽🏝️

^^^ I like to remind people that I am the beginning of Gen Z earning PhDs. Usually people that are curious how I am so happy with my unconventional journey usually understand more once I point that out. 🫠

Idk if it’s because I’m Gen Z or my imposter syndrome is flailing, but solely posting academic achievements on Twitter feels so toxic and now I have given myself the ‘ick’🫠🫠🫠

💎It’s PhD admission season!💎How do you make admission decisions? Instead of the typical top pubs criterion, why not look for and lift up “diamonds in the rough”? The reward is so much bigger when you uncover diamonds who start shining *because of you*. medium.com/@akatuma/finding-…
