Maternity Gap

If  you wonder why there is such a gap in news posts, well the answer is simple: I was on maternity leave between July 2017 and June 2018 (and if you are a U.S. reader, yes, you read this correctly. Under European law this is common!) .

During my maternity leave, I kept on gathering important auto-ethnographic data for the project. As a mother, much of my personal concerns were linked to my research concerns, and I couldn’t really differentiate between the two. I also kept writing papers and giving talks, but I simply couldn’t find the time to update this news blog.

I am sure that all the parents out there, as well as all other fellow researchers will understand. From June 2018 onwards I will be posting regular news and updates. So watch this space!
