A few days ago I was asked by some last year students advice on how to decide whether doing a PhD is the right thing to do. I will put here a summary of what I told them, just in case it can be useful for someone else. 🧵 1/
I'm looking for a postdoc position in experimental materials physics or adjacent field! I mainly worked with ion beam based analysis during my PhD but also keen on learning new skills. Preferably in Europe, starting January-April next year. If you know of something, let me know!
#Outreach Thread Alert! This week we are all about building bridges between STEM, Geography and Geology teachers & students in schools 🔗and🔗 Professional Geoscientists in industry, academia & public life! #GeographyTeacher #Geology #STEMeducation #SchoolsReopening #AskAGeo
@HendrattaAli @MentoringInSTEM Also check out @africwomeningis. We prepare to kickstart a new phase of our mentoring programme in October through April next year. Applications are open to both mentees and mentors. Register here to become a part of our community bit.ly/3i9CE83.
@HendrattaAli @MentoringInSTEM Also, @ESWNtweets includes a mentoring program through facebook.
We have mentees waiting to be paired up, and are on the lookout for academic mentors! We would particularly love to hear from postdocs and lecturers who could share their experiences. You control how much time you give, all STEM disciplines welcome! DM us if you’re interested 📫

An awesome offer of support from one of our fab mentors, thanks @GeomechSteph! 🏅
@GeomechSteph @MentoringInSTEM I too was connected to my mentor by @MentoringInSTEM and have reaped huge benefits from having a mentor. I highly recommend it.
@LandslideLouise @MentoringInSTEM is a great resource. Mentoring can happen at so many levels. Above all, consider choosing someone who will take the time to fully understand your professional goals and learning objectives.
Between 2004 and 2016, over 50 000 people were killed in 4862 recorded landslides. As population grows and climate changes, engineering geologists are becoming ever more crucial in reducing landslide risk. Brilliant new blog by Anika Braun @FrlBraun: geoscienceforthefuture.com/landslides-why…
Thank you to everyone who's got back to us over the past two weeks- it's been really uplifting to hear that so many of the pairings have worked well and are continuing! For those of you who have recently signed up, please check your inboxes- it's pairing time!
Hi all! A year after we started, we are finally going full pelt at re-matching! Check your inbox and let us know if you're keen to carry on, want a new match, or don't need us anymore! Fingers crossed we'll have new matches sorted in the next two weeks...
New year, new mentor? We’ve had some good feedback from some of our mentors- it would be great to hear your experience. Did it work, did you talk, do you want to be rematched, could you take on another mentee? Those of you waiting for a mentor... please keep watching this space!
I had an excellent discussion with my @MentoringInSTEM mentor this week! I’m also a mentor myself. Sign up to @MentoringInSTEM - it’s a really rewarding experience from both sides!

Example of twitter speed mentoring in action- don’t be afraid to reach out to twitter for advice 😃 thread about work life balance in academia, and defining what success means to you:

To all of those who’ve already been paired- it’s been 6 months or so- how’s it going? Maybe it’s been good but you fancy a change- maybe it didn’t work out and you’d like to give it another try with a new mentee/mentor- or maybe it’s all good. Please DM us and let us know!
Forging a career in STEM can be rewarding, collaborative, challenging and fun. It can also be gruelling, lonely, and relentless. If you feel you could offer advice and support to others in STEM, please check out our pinned tweet & DM us, we’re trying to pair up our new mentees!

Twitter, I'm very happy to announce that I'm a doctor now! I successfully defended my PhD last Friday (in a more than 3.5 h long defence). My group also did an incredible job and made this hat for me 🥰

Between 2004 and 2016, over 50 000 people were killed in 4862 recorded landslides. As population grows and climate changes, engineering geologists are becoming ever more crucial in reducing landslide risk. Brilliant new blog by Anika Braun @FrlBraun: geoscienceforthefuture.com/landslides-why…
A taxonomy of academic talks: 1. The “I did a lot of stuff” 2. The “full-prof hasn’t deleted a slide since 2003” 3. The “I know I’m between you and lunch, so....” 4. The “reviewer 3 is in the audience and this is war” 5. The “I’m just here to tell jokes” 6. The “wall of text"
I have a theory that these terrible (and often wrong) hot takes are actually designed to get people to stop caring about combatting climate change altogether. I promise climate scientists don’t actually care that you just binged The Expanse. Half of us did, too.
I had an excellent discussion with my @MentoringInSTEM mentor this week! I’m also a mentor myself. Sign up to @MentoringInSTEM - it’s a really rewarding experience from both sides!
Forging a career in STEM can be rewarding, collaborative, challenging and fun. It can also be gruelling, lonely, and relentless. If you feel you could offer advice and support to others in STEM, please check out our pinned tweet & DM us, we’re trying to pair up our new mentees!
Been thinking a lot about work/life balance recently, and how to carve out time for my research. A senior academic has told me “Something has to suffer. Either your home life, or your research”. I would love to hear tips from those of you who don’t believe this to be true..?
