I didn't realize that Tübingen University posted a whole news about my last PhD student there graduating this summer. Nice!

In which I won an award on the day of publication. Can you do that, too? #AcademicWriting #AcademicChatter #tbp

Hey, look! - kai arzheimer

My paper has won an award less than 12 hours after it was published.

Is there such a miracle as funding for a "roll your own" PhD in EU, UK, Canada, NZ?

I'm finding that most funded PhDs in plant science are slanted towards computation (either bioinformatics or remote sensing or AI) and that's not my forte nor my interest. I'd really like to be able to construct a research topic of my own given I'm not finding what I'm hoping for in advertised PhDs.

I'll never know if I don't ask, right?

Nowadays, the LotR would have to be done in 2 years (plus 1 year maybe extra), because that’s as long as academics can plan in these days. #academicchatter
