    Dear Colleagues,
    Ran across this FREE excellent academic platform called figbox I would like to share with everyone. Click here: https://figbox.co/.

    According to their FAQs fIgbox allow early career researchers and junior scholars the ability support each other through the exchange of feedback, academic content, etc in the following categories:

    General career advice
    Thesis selection/ literature review
    Submission/publication advice
    Postdocs applying for junior professorship positions
    Quantitively and qualitative analyses
    Methodological approach and design
    Feedback on working scholarship/grant
    Feedback on working paper
    Feedback on working thesis
    Replying to referee reviews from journal
    Handling academic conflicts
    Transitioning from academia into workplace
    In exchange early career researchers:
    Increase their mentorship/ peer-review experience
    Receive verified mentorship certificates in support of CV and career
    Get mentorship advice (e.g. grant proposal) from other early career researchers.
    Receive optional lunch money from mentees they support
    Best Regards,
