Dear PhD Applicants,

In writing your SoP, you may be required to include your contribution to DEI in science.

To do this,

Talk about how you have promoted Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion while considering the following.. (check reply)

Normalise saying:

“I don’t really know anything about that, so I don’t want to comment until I’ve learned more about it.”

That’s a sign of strength, not weakness.

I have spent all damn day wondering why someone cut this woman out of the image when they could have just cropped her out if they didn’t like her and it’s JUST occurred to me that it’s Kim K stood next to her.

It has taken me 45 minutes to correct a page number in a reference. Am i even cut out for this?!?

Have any of you used "subject pearl mining"? #AcademicTwitter @AcademicsClass @PhDVoice

I am realising a PhD is just constant reworks 🤣

[Secret Diary of a PhD Candidate @diary_phd]

I am already seeing so much academic bravado - with people "correcting" others around how they describe their work - not in papers or in a viva but none supervisors taking chunks out of different thinkers. 😳 #phdchat #AcademicChatter

[Secret Diary of a PhD Candidate @diary_phd]

I wrote 750 words today referenced and well placed, intentional sentences. I am so relieved to have a writing system that doesn't boggle me

@AcaGrumbles @AcademicChatter How do I go about getting a paper published, its an edited and developed version of a literature review I did for my MSc. Please help

It feels to me like a lot of wandering around in the dark today.

[Secret Diary of a PhD Candidate @diary_phd]

Started back reading papers and trying to assess the quality.

[Secret Diary of a PhD Candidate @diary_phd]

Evening lectures and I am super inspired 🥰🥰🥰 #nerd #phdchat #PhD #phdfriend

[Secret Diary of a PhD Candidate @diary_phd]

@littleredhenemy @PhD_Genie @PhDVoice @OpenAcademics Yes, yes, yes.

[Secret Diary of a PhD Candidate @diary_phd]

Does anyone have a chrome extension that helps summarise papers or extract key learnings? In order to figure out which papers are worth reading quickly. #phdchat #phdchatter #phdfriend @PhDchatter

[Secret Diary of a PhD Candidate @diary_phd]

@AcademicsClass is giving me life right now.
