A few postdocs asked me to read over their job applications. Here’s a few bits of advice: 🧵 /10

1. If any advice doesn’t ring true for you, discard it (including this!)

2. People on the search committee are keen to welcome a colleague, they aren’t looking to take you down

[Dakshat @dakshatt]

Another great day @livunicmr - @BioSpecNet scientists got together to discuss challenges and strategies for MS-based #metabolite annotations & identifications. Yes, #MSI levels were discussed, at depth. Great sessions by @RoyGoodacre on paper writing, reviewing & publishing too.

[PhD Voice - Independently Run @PhDVoice]

On average, how long does it take to complete a PhD at your university? And which university are you at?🤔

#PhDVoice @PostdocVoice

[Dakshat @dakshatt]

This week, I officially committed to representing #researchers, help their development & enrich their overall experience at @LivUni.

I’ve joined @UoL_RSA as a deputy co-chair & I can already tell you there are a lot of good stuff happening. So, follow @UoLRSA, if you haven’t.

[Dakshat @dakshatt]

If you’re going to show #PLSDA models and it doesn’t look like this 👇🏼 well….we may have a problem! @BioSpecNet @livunicmr

Enough of #PLSDA scores plots, Q2 values and sometimes no validation at all. Let’s do it the right way pls! Can’t say this enough.

[All About Academia @AboutAcademia]

To beat the #MondayBlues, be creative and give us your version of two truths and a lie #aboutacademia (not necessarily in any order) We will go first,

1) Academia doesn’t pay well/enough
2) Academia is competitive, with or without your participation
3) Academia has job security

[Postgrad Research Hub @PGResearchHub]

This is an important Tweet from @dakshatt

Anyone who does find themselves feeling this way can drop by our postgrad research hub Discord server. Chat and connect informally with other PhDs and researchers
