There are three main areas of training every good scientist should strive to improve during their academic career and beyond:
Critical and creative thinking: a necessary tool for designing experiments, interacting with the body of knowledge of your field and interpreting scientific findings.
Technical skills: learning about the techniques necessary to carry out your research.
Writing and communication: essential to communicate our research to a broad audience and work in collaborative teams.
Below there is a list of resources to develop each of these skills in the areas of writing, bioinformatics, scientific seminars and career development.
