📝 New blog post:
Finding the perfect PhD topic – or how it finds youJulia Flattich reflects on the early stages of doctoral research: how an initially well-defined proposal develops through reading, discussion and new questions. Her post explores the challenges of balancing curiosity, academic relevance and feasibility—and why uncertainty can be an important part of the research process.

A doctoral student recently came with a weird question: their supervisor told them that "examiners would be reassured" by seeing many connections on LinkedIn.
I have many ethical issues with the framing and with LinkedIn itself (despite having an account there), but I'd love to know from experienced scholars (maybe examiners themselves): how and why would examiners be concerned with my LinkedIn account?@academicchatter @phdstudents #AcademicMastodon #AcademicFedi

Hey there, I am Prathamesh Deshmukh, a PhD scholar at UGC-DAE CSR, Mumbai, working in condensed matter physics. My research focuses on magnetoelectric coupling in multiferroic composites and their dielectric, magnetic, and neutron diffraction studies.
Beyond synthesis, I specialise in scientific instrumentation. I designed the Advanced Transport Measurement System (ATMS), a low-cost cryogenic setup for precision transport measurements, and developed PICA, an open-source Python suite for lab automation.
I will be completing my PhD this year and am seeking postdoctoral research opportunities that would leverage my expertise in experimental physics, scientific instrumentation, and software development.

RE: https://mstdn.social/@junesim63/115849070993758165
I find appalling that West universities are so silent about this, and many still cooperating with Israeli universities, while schools of arts and humanities like the one I'm doing my PhD fill their mouth of "class struggle, decoloniality and [insert your favourite academic leftwing jargon].

"Research Groups Oppose Capping #NIH Funding of Publisher Fees."
https://www.insidehighered.com/news/government/science-research-policy/2025/12/16/research-groups-oppose-capping-nih-fundingPS: These universities seem to be saying: "We accept the growth of the APC model. We just need help paying APCs." They don't take any responsibility for steering authors toward high-prestige, high-JIF, high-APC journals, and don't acknowledge their ability to change those incentives while upholding their historic standards of quality. They could say instead, "We will revise our research assessment (promotion and tenure) procedures to focus on the quality of research more than where it is published." Insofar as universities succeed at shifting those incentives -- admittedly a long game -- authors could submit work to no-fee or diamond OA journals, bypass APC-based journals, and face no blowback from their P&T committees. All researchers and research institutions would win, including those institutions that now want govt help in paying APCs.

Remember the academic dogma: decolonisation, politics, systemic analysis...all are for an intellectual entertainment to produce papers, not to be applied in real life.

Hey academic Fedi,
I'm regularly thinking that it would be useful to have a tool that helps me find articles that cite a paper to contradict (or at least "contrast") its result.It seems that scite [1] does this but they requires a pretty steep subscription given that I'm not sure how reliable their tool is and that they also advertise a chatbot...
[1]: https://scite.ai
Does anyone know of something similar, or a workaround to achieve something similar using standard scientific search engines?
If you don't know, boosts are also appreciated to help the person who might know see this post 😉

I really enjoyed @Felienne's narrative about narratives about Computer Science yesterday. She applied some of the ideas presented in the Glaciers, Gender and Science paper (https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/abs/10.1177/0309132515623368) to her experiences in the Computer Science / Programming Languages communities. She's also starting a reading club to brainstorm the meaning (and the name?) of the field of "Computer Science".

Yesterday at ICT.OPEN I also attended a panel discussion on "Bridging the Gap between Research and Industry through Application-Oriented AI Innovations"
It was mostly academics in the room, but I had an interesting chat with Dr. Floor Campfens and my colleague Dr. Anna Lukina afterwards, where we talked about the research done at RIWO, and of course our research at TU Delft.

Shout-out to my colleagues from Leiden University, University of Applied Sciences Leiden, and mboRijnland, who are striking today in Leiden and The Hague.
They are protesting the announced budget cuts on higher education, and represent the start of a staggered Higher Education strike that will continue at least for the coming five weeks or so.

Hello #Fediverse @academicchatter
I need your help for a privacy-focused local-host (run offline from my computer) transcription software.I am (luckily?) collecting more interviews than I planned and transcribing manually is becoming a giant task, so it would really be helpful to have an automatic assistance.
Any suggestions?

3) The other larger project we'll do in Intro to Public History involves #HistoricalMarkers.
Students will learn a bit about historical markers, where they come from, some of the discussion about their uses and abuses, etc. Then, they'll study historical markers in our specific region and consider them in terms of historical representation and narrative.
With that background, they'll be invited to either revise a group of current markers or to create a new set of historical markers around a particular event or theme in local history.
If all goes well, they'll do some sort of digital tour to bring their markers to life.
This is inspired, in part, by Delia Fernandez-Jones' Latinx Historical Markers project, which you can learn more about here:

"The real deficit that workers from lower social-class origins suffer in school is not intellectual but cultural: They know less than those from higher class origins about what the pathways to education are and how to make the most of them. Evidence from elite colleges indicates that cultural capital matters more than financial capital in predicting which students will succeed."

@gubi How did this move from #Mendeley to #zotero work for you? I've been using Mendeley since 2012 (so long before it was bought by #elsevier !) but the cloud version and this new Mendeley Cite thing in Word are driving me nuts today.

A doctoral researcher wrote to me today asking me for views on #gpt (she is at my institution & comes to me to discuss her #DoctoralWriting).
She is genuinely confused about whose advice to follow and has signed up to one of the new 'academic writing gurus' promising to fix everything with AI.
I took the opportunity to post this on the bird site (because that is still where my students read me):

Ah yes, the week before finals... or when students whose names you barely recognize from the gradebook - and you could not pick out of a crowd - suddenly appear in your inbox, with many incredible tales of the many adventures that kept them from physically attending class or completing the work. "Hello Professor, I hope you're doing well. I was wondering if..."
-
Would anybody be able to point towards an updated (or internationally-referred to, eg Bologna-type equivalence) document on the core criteria & standards doctorates are held to, eg making an original contribution to knowledge, sustained independent research, what counts as evidence of completion (eg. a final thesis, a minimum word count, an exegisis, a viva, publications, etc).
Or does each country/institution set its own standards?
Thanx
