    Can't wait until the pandemic is over and I have to fly 24 hours across the world to pin up a poster and sleep my way through 3 days of presentations again

        I kid, conferences are of course immensely important networking opportunities without which I would never have gotten drunk at 2am while eating tteokbokki in Seoul, or gone whiskey-tasting in Dublin

        I still have notes from both of those conferences, and while unintelligible they are a great reminder of some wonderful collegiate hangovers with my peers

        By my estimation, every conference has about 3 hours of really useful, high-value content (mostly a combo of the PhD student presentations and the new RCT results) combined with a lot quite boozy networking

        Dude, read the room. I'd sell my first born to be so lucky I get bored of 'travel' and 'getting paid'.

        I'm half kidding? Some conferences are a massive travel for very little benefit, some are amazing opportunities. Can be really hard to tell which one is which before you get there!

        Climate change, fueled by such behavior, is a much bigger problem than the current pandemic.

        Plus they are an opportunity to travel for free - just tack on a couple more days.
