  1. Here is my lazy Sunday question for you.

    I remain surprised at the number of instructors (and other professionals) I meet that never held a job outside their field. Maybe I shouldn't be.

    Did you have a job that wasn't in your field? Summer, temp, whatever. Just working exposure to a different world than your professional one?

  6. Interesting paper on citing behaviour in Psychology
    journals.sagepub.com/doi/full/

    I think with my internal, slightly facetious, #postgrad talk on "How not to cite" I contribute to (Table 2) building cultural norms around good citing behaviour, but loads more to do!

  10. My university applications were successful! I have two offers and am deciding between them. UNE is excellent for online learning, while Deakin is great with accessibility and based in Melbourne. Both programs are similar, though Deakin has more electives, while UNE’s writing major is broader. At Deakin, I could specialise in professional writing, which is my main interest. Decisions, decisions! #Writing #Postgrad #HigherEd #DistanceLearning #WritingStudies

  11. Interested in doing a multidisciplinary #PhD at the interface of cancer cell biology and materials science?

    We have a fully-funded #EPSRC PhD studentship opportunity at the University of Manchester!

  12. Imagine doing an online Masters, and there is only one paper copy of prescribed text.

    The digital text can only be viewed by one person at a time. You cannot copy it, use text-to-speech and printing is limited to 50 pages.

    The library refuses to change digital access.

  13. Death Literacy Barbie rides again!

    Thank you ACAP Navitas in Sydney for a phenomenal four hours of engaged and curious, switched on Masters of Psychology class. Part of the life stages unit, I taught older adults, death literacy, meaning-making, advance planning, icebreaker conversation starters, and grief. We got through a LOT in four hours!

    Big fun, cannot wait to come back.

  14. Oh noes.. I just thought of another possible post-grad project..

    The increased popularity of D&D as a cultural criminological phenomenon because it lets us take action against injustice in a world where we feel constantly disempowered.

    People have already written a lot about this with regards to superheroes and comics etc, especially in relation to the whole War on Terror post 9-11 thing.

    Hagley & Harrison 2014
    Philips & Strobl 2013
    Philips & Strobl 2006
    Jewett & Lawrence 2003
    Lovell 2002

    DnD shares a lot with superhero stories and with comic books:
    - Blurring of the line between crime and entertainment
    - Contribution to understandings of justice
    - Influence over public perceptions of social problems

    They share familiar themes:
    - Dominant notions of justice
    - Consensus view of crime and deviance
    - Nostalgia and patriotism
    - Retribution
    - Extra-legal responses to crime
    - Failures of the criminal justice system
    - Imagined communities

    They reinforce the status quo:
    - Attempt to ‘restore social order’
    - extra-legal vigilantism
    - retributive justice (Phillips & Strobl, 2006)
    - Criminals/villains are dangerous ‘agents of change’, while heroes are protectors of the status quo.

    ‘These villains frequently echo the concerns and conflicts of the culture from which they emerge’ (Fingeroth, 2004)

  15. Facebook reminded me 13 years ago today I passed my #PhD #viva at #DundeeUniversity. Happy PhD birthday to me! I haven't been able to work in a paid capacity in #academia since due to my #progressive MS-like #illness. But I'm still active as an #academic. Here's a blog post about my activities since then. vivsacademicblog.wordpress.com #Dundee #Research #University #Postgrad

  18. I’ve had a great morning scrolling through #Edinburgh #EdinburghUniversity #MedicalScience #MatureStudent etc to find new followers, if I’ve followed you today, Hi!

    I’m a 40 something mum of one, married to a Texan, based in #CentralScotland. I attend #EdinburghUniversity im in year 3 of #MedicalScience with the dream of doing #PostGrad #Medicine or #ScotGem

    I also run a #MassageClinic and a #SleepCoach living with #narcolepsy

    I love to read, watch #TrueCrime TV and listen to #Podcasts

  19. I've been rubbish again at tooting, so another apology photo. Though now officially registered for my master's, so very excited about induction next week 🎉

  21. I am currently on #academic cloud nine, as the saying goes.

    Just having simple recognition for your effort alongside valuable #feedback is an effective #morale boost and pushes further #enjoyment in the #research I applied to take on for the next 3.5 years.

    Extremely pleased PhD #student for sure.

    Anyone else having a positive #experience with their #PhD?

  23. As promised, here is another old infographic. This was another popular one (& another that was slightly 'off topic' being more #postgrad than #undergrad ). This describes determining axial or helical stereochemical descriptors for naming.
    The original can be found

    and a text description at
    makingmolecules.com/blog/helic
    Hope it is useful.

    of course, I should have reposted these in order ...
