Early Career Breakout Session: "Balancing Our Many Roles: Clinician, Educator, Researcher, Caregiver, and More" (CAR401).

1. Identify strategies to balance research responsibilities alongside other clinical, administrative, education and family roles. 2. Highlight practical insights on time management, goal-setting, and boundary-setting to prevent burnout while managing multiple responsibilities. In this early career breakout session, three investigators will share their multi-disciplinary perspectives about building and sustaining a program of research in the context of other roles as clinician, educator, caregiver and many others. During this moderated session, the panelists will highlight potential strategies and considerations for finding balance and success while navigating these different roles, including cultivating a supportive network, honing time-management skills, the art of saying "no" (or a stipulated "yes"), and identifying and prioritizing what matters. The panelists will share personal anecdotes and lessons learned from their own experiences, offering invaluable insights into how to navigate the challenges of juggling multiple responsibilities. From carving out dedicated research time amidst clinical duties to leveraging teaching opportunities to enhance research skills, attendees can expect a brief exploration of how to integrate different roles synergistically and a candid exploration of the challenges and opportunities in forging a career in research.
