What makes PhDs worth it? Our new paper finds that: 💡Career & personal value from PhDs dictates whether it was worth doing, even outweighing a bad PhD experience 💡Not being valued at work was the key reason given for saying the PhD wasn't worth it. ⬇️ emerald.com/insight/conten…

Great panel this morning at #WSBW launching the 2024 summit for EO 🛰️ I asked about R&D spend. All panellists said they were planning to increase R&D investment/activity 📈 I wish I had asked about space debris given all this growth!

New book chapter! Putting the ‘Extra’ in Extracurricular: Why Going Off-Script is Important for Life After the Doctorate. All about how work outside doctoral study (e.g. volunteering, paid work) can help students find their purpose, as it did for me. #toc" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">link.springer.com/book/10.1007/9…

I've wanted to write about the approach of 'being scrappy' in researcher development and job-hunting for a while. Thanks to the team from Pathfinder at the University of Glasgow for asking me to guest write this blog on ‘career entrepreneurialism’ theauditorium.blog/2023/07/04/bec…

Most doctoral graduates will be employed outside academia; so why do so many leave unprepared for an industry role? For @NatureHumBehav, @DrBillyBryan proposes a 'supply chain' model to better-prepare students for jobs they actually want: ow.ly/oK7h50NHQMv

Very excited to have joined the Government's Evaluation and Trial Advice Panel (ETAP)! @WhatWorksUK @RANDEurope I look forward to advising civil servants on how robust evaluation methods can add value to their important policies and programmes, from levelling-up to Net-Zero.
What Works@WhatWorksUK

Today the Evaluation Task Force is pleased to announce the appointment of new Evaluation & Trial Advice Panel members! Panel members will be supporting government departments to design and deliver robust evaluations so we can evidence 'what works'. rb.gy/rhsuo5
