 This is Anna. Her supervisor yells and swears at her whenever her experiments don't work. This is John. He receives hurtful messages from another student on a regular basis. This is Kimmy. Some days another postdoc in the group refuses to speak to or even look at her. This is Mike. His supervisor tells him to work long hours, including every weekend. All these people are being bullied. Bullying is any repeated action that causes harm to another person. This harm can be physical, emotional, or social and often involves a misuse of power. Bullying can happen to anyone and can happen anywhere, even in research environments. If you are experiencing bullying, there is always something you can do. The first step is to start a conversation. Talk to a trusted friend or colleague, the supervisor, human resources manager, harassment advisor, ombuds person, thesis committee, or any other support officers. Get support and get advice. You are not alone.
