Abstract

The international Women In Supramolecular Chemistry network believe taking an area-specific approach effectively supports equality, diversity, and inclusion. Science lacks diversity, and this is intersectional. Here, we share effects of COVID-19, triangulating findings from an online survey, a collaborative autoethnography, and reflective group research meetings. We show how qualitative research with the community offers insights into challenges, and supports individuals and demonstrate that research leaders often took responsibility for their teams’ mental health and wellbeing at cost to their own.
