Sara Zalghout: Navigating the Often-Unspoken Challenges of Academia at ISTH 2026
Sara Zalghout, Senior Postdoctoral Fellow at KU Leuven, shared a post on LinkedIn:
“The Early Career Lounge has always been one of my favorite parts of the International Society on Thrombosis and Haemostasis (ISTH).
And this year, I am especially excited because I will be part of the programme!
We will be talking about something that affects researchers at every career stage: navigating the often-unspoken challenges of academia: from managing expectations and difficult conversations to collaborations, mentorship, authorship, and professional relationships.
If you’re attending ISTH 2026, come join us for an interactive and open discussion where we will explore some of the real challenges of research life.
I am very happy to be joining this discussion alongside:
- Professor Jon Gibbons (University of Reading; HaemAnalytica)
- Professor Suzanne Cannegieter (Leiden University Medical Centre)
Moderated by Professor Gael Morrow.
- Monday 13 July
- 12:15–13:45
- Early Career Lounge (inside the Exhibition Hall)
‘The first step toward change is talking about it’
Looking forward to the discussion, hearing your perspectives, and meeting many of you there!”
