Research Adjacent

No-one wants to be the last one at the party. I've decided it's time to bow out of Twitter/X/whatever and concentrate my efforts on the more sociable social media platforms. Come and find me somewhere else. Here are all the links linktr.ee/resadjacent

In the latest episode Emma Perfect talks about her experiences of the entire life cycle of a small company - from the excitement of getting started to the sadness of closing it down (many years later). Thanks for your honesty Emma - it's such an important conversation.

Emma Perfect's move from the SME world into academia has left her wondering whether there should be more emphasis on the business side of spin-outs, not just the technical. Listen to the episode here sarahmclusky.com/emma-perfect-b…. #innovation #knowledgeexchange #spinout

Latest guest Emma Perfect joined a tiny start up as their first and only scientist fresh out of her PhD. Tasked with making glowing fungi (so cool!) for biosensors, it was a huge learning curve. Listen to the rest of the story in your podcast app or here sarahmclusky.com/emma-perfect-b…

It's new episode day 😊 Check your podcast app or follow the link to hear me talking to Emma Perfect about working in the science start-up business world for twenty years and her recent transition to academia. It's been a rollercoaster ride! 🎢 sarahmclusky.com/emma-perfect-b…

The latest episode was inspired by a podcast interview where @LornaRFDNCL said #Resilience is one of the most important skills in the research world. Knockbacks, rejection and failure are the norm, yet so many people entering this world have never experienced that before.

Do you believe that no matter what happens you can figure it out and things will be OK? That even if things go wrong, you are still a valuable human being? For me that's a solid sign of a resilient mindset. Listen for more musings on #Resilience sarahmclusky.com/resilience-epi…

@hamish_mcalpine @UKRI_News I think being kind is just generally excellent life advice! Thanks for being open about it - if only more people were a bit braver I think we would understand each other better.

Kudos to @hamish_mcalpine for talking so honestly about the highs and lows of leading on the development of the Knowledge Exchange Framework #KEF and the pressure of getting it right. I find it comforting to know everyone doubts themselves sometimes. Thanks Hamish 🙏
