Episode 30
In this episode, we address a variety of questions from listeners:
- How is research similar to content creation? (blog, podcast, Instagram)
- How have you seen academic parenting evolving through the years you've been in academia? I have the feeling that now it has become more accepted (comparing to when I was an undergrad)
- Which advice would you give your younger self?
We also discuss our plans for the summer, and ask each other the questions we've been asking our interviewees:
- What is your best piece of advice for PhD students?
- How has Covid-19 changed your job and daily tasks?
