Pursuing PhD Genetics. Still says Yolo.

Rest in peace, dad. You fought long and hard - you've more than earned this rest.

@PhDVoice @PostdocVoice As a junior PhD scientist I'd say it's better to be second. Shows more contribution to the actual work. Further down your career path I'd think last author is more beneficial

@PhD_Genie The panicked postgrad

[Leah M @LeahInTheRye]

@PhDVoice @PostdocVoice I'm currently applying and been forthcoming that I'm finishing up my PhD. Hopeful it doesn't count against me

[Leah M @LeahInTheRye]

@PhDVoice @PostdocVoice I'm very comfortable with my current supervisor. I like it since I don't feel nervous about discussing my work and I can approach him easily.

[Leah M @LeahInTheRye]

@Alakesh_Phy @PhDVoice It has a place, but many graduates are expected to churn out publications. That's just not possible

[Leah M @LeahInTheRye]

@Esrraaas @PhDVoice @ThePhDPlace Just start writing. Don't think you have to write in order. Put down what you can and what comes easiest. Then build from there.

@BerezowskiTori 'oops I did it again'

@AcademicChatter It's fine. There's a bad mentality of 'Work all day every day, do nothing else. If you do anything else and don't dedicate your life to this then you're not serious' in academia. Do what you need to do for yourself.

[Leah M @LeahInTheRye]

@DrN1958 @jo_finegan @DJGould94 I think it's more expecting and knowing that things don't always go to plan, even when it's planned as best you can.

@IjeomaOparaPHD On this, imagine my horror when I found all the work and results I was writing up for my MSc thesis published online with one of my collaborators as a co-author

[Leah M @LeahInTheRye]

@PhDVoice @PostdocVoice Honestly, I wouldn't care about a presenter's tattoos. It's always nice to see some personality

[Leah M @LeahInTheRye]

@HereToVentPhD @PhDVoice Yes, you grow a thick skin and learn to always expect it. Remember they're critiquing the work, it's not anything personal. Learn and keep going. It's part of the process.

@AcademicFemale I once had a supervisor tell me my manuscript was quite good. Later in a meeting he revealed he hadn't actually read it.

[Leah M @LeahInTheRye]

@FromPhDtoLife I've started a few veggie patches using seeds from food items I've eaten. It's really soothing to spend some time in the garden each day

[Leah M @LeahInTheRye]

@gmail is acting up and it's a Friday. It's a sign.

[Leah M @LeahInTheRye]

@AidenEQuinn @PhDVoice I have supervisors with similar ideas. I was co-author on 3 publications this year and first author on 1. I mostly managed this because sample collection was on going and other work was related.
It takes a lot of time and is not sustainable for every year of the PhD.

[Leah M @LeahInTheRye]

@PhdExhausted Just realized I said this to my supervisor the other week when he very much had faith in me to do the task.
