This year I had the opportunity to spend a semester at @univgroningen, which has honestly changed my outlook on academia. Thank you to Prof. Kim Knibbe for hosting me, and to the wonderful colleagues who supported me and took an interest in my research. More posts to come!

An important perspective
I think I will conclude that I regret starting a PhD. Doing research was a hobby and it was unwise to turn it into a career. It's a deeply personal endeavor that should be done for its own sake. The hobby is gone, and also my pace of career progression. Lose-lose situation.

Hi researchers! My friend @MasterAcademia_ and I have spent over a year developing an online course to help people write and publish an academic paper. It’s really detailed and we’re super proud of it, but struggling to share it with the right people. So far we’ve not found any students, just people testing it out, and it’s 50% off right now. If you see this, please hit share and help us spread it. Www.thephdplace.com/courses

Academia has a hidden curriculum. Unspoken rules you’re just expected to know. I came up with an idea to reveal it. My university awarded me £1150 to make it happen. A Thread 👇

I graduated today! I can honestly say that doing a PhD was the best thing I’ve ever done for myself. I suppose I’m really PhDone now.

Research is spending 10 hours reading 40 papers, to write one sentence containing 2 references. #ad @unriddle_ai makes sure you’re only reading what you need to. Here are the most useful features (and why PhDs should care) A Thead 🧵👇
