I recently had a fantastic conversation with Vikki Wright and Tina Skinner on Vikki's podcast The PhD Life Coach on #researcherwellbeing. It's a great introduction to the subject for PhD students.

Very excited to announce that last week I started a new job as Lecturer in Psychology at @bathspauni.bsky.social, specialising in forensic psychology! I've been welcomed by such a wonderful community of academics and I can't wait to see what the future has in store for my teaching and research.

Just submitted my PhD thesis!

Had a break from thesis writing last week to give a talk on VR in GBV research at the @VAWGRN @ResearchLex @CSEL_UK @feminist_legal ⁩joint #FeministLiverpool2024 conference. The inspirational speakers definitely helped after the upsetting news for women's rights on Wednesday.

As someone who used to lead a data visualisation team, these are both hilarious and so disheartening...

Wonderful night at the @UniofBath @DoctoralBath Doctoral Celebration Evening, recognising the fantastic work within our doctoral community, and talking about my experiences winning the National @Vitae_news #3MT competition last year.

Absolutely chuffed to see we now have over 100 members in the #ResearcherWellbeingGroup! It's fantastic to see so many #ECRs of emotionally challenging research want to support each other. @UniofBath #researcherwellbeing #PhD

Seeing some men's responses to the "Would you rather encounter a man or a bear in the woods?" debate on #tiktok just highlights how much work there is left to do to raise male awareness of #GBV.

Did I just add my 500th reference to my PhD EndNote Library? Yes. Are 181 of them still unread? Yes. Do I have a folder in my library called 'Interesting but irrelevant'? Yes. #phdlife @ThePhDPlace @PhDVoice

It was a privilege to be invited to be a keynote panellist at #ICDDET, sharing my experiences of the @3MT_official competition and my work in #researcherwellbeing. Fantastic to see the doctoral education community so engaged with these subjects.

Feeling super empowered after the Researcher Wellbeing Group hosted a talk by @UniofBath’s Tina Skinner on her fresh-off-the-press research in this field. We had a record number of 64 attendees! What a way to end 2023! #researcherwellbeing #secondarytraumastress
