In a world that is critically difficult and damaging to the individual PhD researcher in, both in terms of workplace stress, mental health and pandemic related isolation and disruption, these two-day long sessions aim to allow researchers to develop and maintain a positive and nourishing relationship with their thesis research and their working practice.

Through discussion and activities, you’ll learn how to overcome procrastination, streamline your writing process, and boost productivity – all without sacrificing quality. By the end of the session, you’ll have a strategy you can apply to current and future journal articles.

This session offers you the space and tools to explore and shape your researcher identity so that you can connect with others in a more meaningful way.

This workshop brings together some crucial factors for success, taking you on a journey from 'beige' (mediocre) communication, to talking about your research in way that engages and inspires others.

This two-part workshop combines a wide-ranging introduction to academic conferences, writing abstracts and preparing presentations (including Powerpoint slides) with a practical session on the second day.

Writing research papers as a doctoral student can be daunting. This half-day workshop aims to make the process of identifying what might work as a paper, as well as how to write it, that little bit easier.
