I presented at the 10th international Pint of Science festival last night and it was SO much fun!!! 10/10 would recommend getting to a show tonight, or next year if you can’t make it tonight!

Super excited to share that I am a recipient of one of the Tour de Cure PhD grants! This support will help me continue my work, discovering more about γδ T cells and their role in breast cancer as a possible therapeutic tool. Thank you so very much @tourdecure_aus

@SmritiPranjal @AcademicChatter @PhDVoice I have an excel spreadsheet, with a 1-5 rating regarding importance, the details of the paper, 5 keywords, and a basic summary. It’s really handy, and very easy to flick through when I’m looking for something.

@melkorman @ThePhDPlace We technically have 4 weeks of leave available to us, and 10 days (I think) of sick leave. But students rarely take all that time

How much time off do you think is fair for a PhD student to take in any given year? My university doesn’t seem to have guidelines on this, which seems a bit strange to me, so I’d love to hear what #AcademicTwitter thinks! @ThePhDPlace

@PhDVoice @PostdocVoice We have our own desks in an open office space, with dividers so we can actually get some work done. But private offices are reserved for lab heads

@jsmnpnv @PhDVoice I go to work earlier than most people, so I also leave earlier, which means the gyms are half empty, and there still feels like enough time left in the day after I get home from the gym. If I finished work at 5, I don’t think I could make myself go… 😅

Dear academic twitter: do you workout/do sport? How do you even motivate yourself to do it? The last thing I want to do after work is to be doing more stuff, but I'm also conflicted because movement is good for my physical and mental health. Help a girl out! #phdchat #phdvoice

Just attended a jaw-dropping talk from @purton_louise addressing inequity in Australian research funding. I’m depressed at the current state of funding, yet so optimistic about the future, and extremely grateful for the work being done by Louise and her colleagues
