"I would like now to interrogate our knowledge of assessment through a framework affectionately known as 'Cotton-Eye Joe's': where did it come from, and where is it going?"

I really appreciate the ritual of everyone in a lab group presenting their work to each other on a regular basis.
Presentation and communication skills are seriously undervalued in science, so enforced practice seems like a very good thing.
More importantly, though, I find it incredibly valuable to reflect on what I've been doing, why, what it means, what I can learn from that, and how it ought to shape my work going forward. There's something about declaring these things publicly that forces me to be concrete, and makes it much harder to deceive myself.
Then, of course, there's the precious feedback. So important! For me, that's the main reason to do science in academia. I don't think a human mind works very well without the perspective and criticism of others.

First #PosterPresentation for Arghya within #LeidenForce!
Sharing research, discussing results and receiving feedback from the scientific community are essential steps in a PhD journey.
Scientific exchange is at the heart of doctoral training.

Male Cat: Wassup doll?
Catgirl: Mrrp. I need to brush up my methodology …
Male Cat: (reads, then yawns) … u up for that nonsense again?! You‘re neglecting me, brushing furs is high.
Catgirl: Purr … 🤷🏻♀️ … but I love theory.
Male Cat: STFU. You need to brush my fur. Now!

Learning from cause and consequence 🤖🔎
Gabin Agbalé, PhD student in Alexander Marx ’s Causality group at RC Trust, attended the Reinforcement Learning Summer School 2026 in Milan. 🇮🇹🎓
The program connected directly to his work on causal representation learning and offered space for feedback, exchange, and future collaborations. 🌍🤝

I went down the airtightness rabbit hole today to try to disentangle the different units used by researchers, industry and standards. So we can talk about them in a meaningful way. GAH! Blower doors need the 50Pa but buildings don't operate there. In all fairness. I LOVED IT! I am such a building geek 😍 #PhDLife

Having a low work day today. Need to recover from the syncope last night. Will finish methodology today (1 page left 🤣🤣) Then maybe take it easy if my brain needs it. But more often than not, I get into a track and keep going. This will end soon and I will be editing my novel instead of my thesis 🥰 #PhDLife
