Dear Landsat 5,

Work with me please.

Sincerely,
A curious Doc.

Got my first "Dear Dr. Cortés" today. What a time to be alive.

[Isamar (La Dura) Cortés Ph.D. 🇵🇷🇺🇸 @IsamarCortes1]

Things I've done in the past few months:
1. Defended my Ph.D.
2. Moved to Wales
3. Started a postdoc
4. Got my first manuscript accepted :)

This last academic year has been one of the most chaotic years of my life. Glad things are starting to look up 😅

We’re sending love and coffee to everyone who is writing up their PhD ❤️

[Isamar (La Dura) Cortés Ph.D. 🇵🇷🇺🇸 @IsamarCortes1]

Felt this.

[dr liz @lzbthcx_]

finishing a PhD is much more exhausting than I anticipated. edits. re-re-reading. worrying if it's good enough. job market anxiety. viva worry. concern about a job/unemployment. managing a viva that is entirely date-less. paying bills. will it pass? what next? where? jesus wept.

[Isamar (La Dura) Cortés Ph.D. 🇵🇷🇺🇸 @IsamarCortes1]

How do y'all write a discussion section?

[Isamar (La Dura) Cortés Ph.D. 🇵🇷🇺🇸 @IsamarCortes1]
