About Chiara Maurino
I am passionate about literature and foreign languages. I love creative writing and hope to pursue a career in an artistic field. A lot of my research involved finding out about the horrific military dictatorships in Argentina and Uruguay towards the end of the 20th century. For this reason, I have become really interested in the notion of emotional trauma, how it can leave invisible scars on a population, and how it can haunt a nation. I'm also a huge fan of podcasts and hope to start my own one day! I'm in love with The Poetry Exchange podcast and the BBC Arts and Ideas!

How are Laidlaw Scholars dealing with the COVID-19 pandemic?
In an attempt to foster a sense of community and to encourage each other to stay centred and connected, I caught up with a few scholars to see how the pandemic has impacted their research plans, how they are managing the stress and uncertainty of this period and what they have been getting up to.
