Research Rabbit

LEGE — Fri, 07 Apr 2023 12:01:33 -0500

You’re determined students, passionate teachers, and inspired creators of everything we know! Yet, all the researchers we spoke with over the past year uncovered the same reality:

Despite the degrees you’ve earned, the effort and passion you put in every day, the sacrifices you make – academia burdens you with tons of stressors. Financial, psychological, physical, and more.

We’re an unconventional team with backgrounds in various fields – both inside and outside of academia. And through our lens, it’s clear that academia deeply undervalues and underserves its very own community!

It’s time to reimagine research.
