My PhD thesis viva voce is approaching and I'm looking for words of advice and encouragement. My Mum told me, "Don't forget to breathe!" which I think is pretty good advice.

I relate to this. My Mum left school at 12 to work, married at 19, first kid at 20. My Dad left school at 14 and fixed car bodies (extremely well) for nearly 50 years. They both worked so hard and Iā€™m glad I can take care of them now.

As a first-gen student, I've always known that other students with legacies in academia or family histories of college education have inherent advantages over me, but I don't think I've ever been able to see and understand that as clearly as today.

This #PhD candidate is based in the US. I would really like to get #Australian #PhD candidates opinions regarding the #RTP stipend and whether they need to rely on additional jobs and/or family support?? šŸ§ #phdchat #AcademicChatter

Happiness is when your PhD supervisor still texts you to tell you that they are proud of you. It has been 8 years since I finished my PhD but she continues to be my mentor and source of positivity to date. Academia needs such people, let's be those peoplešŸ¤—

An important thread on stress-induced health issues during PhD.
Kevin Enrique Rivera Cruz, Ph.D.@Wuakatela10 Apr 2022
Things people should talk more about in graduate school; Health. While in graduate school, you might develop stress induce health-related issues. I never thought I would develop eczema IBS and get my asthma back. (1/x)
Woohoo! Today I reached 50 citations! šŸ„³
