Participants wanted more advice on post-fellowship opportunities and advice on how to pivot their careers	“Have a concrete way for us to engage with Hi-med rather than simply discussion” “I think maybe forming some steps to take forward (e.g. blog post/teaching session/some form of advocacy/education/action) might be quite helpful?” “I would be pleased to get engaged in some research project or career advise, to be honest, I don’t have a certain plan right at the moment but am highly motivated to search for future perspectives!” “I think finding a concrete way of us being involved in research/other projects will be beneficial (preferably working together with other peers)”
