Who We Are
The International Science Postgraduate Mental Health Alliance (ISPMHA) was developed as part of an NSF-funded project aiming to promote mental health in the sciences. We serve as an organization to help postgraduates in the sciences, specifically graduate students and postdoctoral researchers, connect, share resources, and engage in advocacy efforts to champion mental health in academia.
Our mission is to:
Build a community of graduate students and postdoctoral scholars who value and promote mental health in scientific spaces.
Bring to light the mental health challenges that graduate students and postdoctoral scholars experience in academic science.
Develop and implement personal, departmental, and institutional resources to promote mental health.
