Since I became a lecturer 6 years ago, it’s been one thing after another - Brexit, Covid, job losses, strikes, fewer PhD studentships, dropping research funding success rates and now this - no funding at all. How are we supposed to go on?

Another viva, another success! Very proud of Annis aka future Dr Newman for doing an excellent job. And a special thanks to @jayhinton.bsky.social and Garry Blakely for examining her thesis. Once again, there were smiles all around. I’m a proud supervisor indeed!

The goal of a PhD is not to learn some facts or read a few papers or learn a bunch of techniques. The goal of a PhD is to learn independence, problem solving, how to finish things you start, resilience, & gain the ability to adapt & think creatively. Learning these things is hard.
