Simona Meiler pushes boundaries in climate risk science

Prix Schläfli 2025 for Geosciences: Simona’s snowboarding career ended at the 2018 Winter Olympics, but since then, she has shown the same drive in her commitment to science. Simona Meiler has been awarded the Swiss Academy of Sciences’ Prix Schläfli in Geosciences for her research into tropical cyclones.

I’m seeking recommendations for PhD programs. My masters level graduate work is focused on #posthumanism, and I have extensive experience in #CommunityDevelopment. For my doctoral research I’d like to merge the two fields to re-imagine how we do and be #community in the #Anthropocene. I’m looking for a program that is pretty self-directed and ideally offers opportunities for independent studies. I’m just starting this search process from scratch.

All suggestions welcome!

Hello @annamills, thank you for your work on #AI literacies, pedagogies, and awareness raising. It's helping me, at least, raise awareness within my own academic writing contexts.

Are you aware of any similar and/or specific work - including your own that I'm not aware of - relating to the use of #LLMs and other #ArtificialIntelligence writing technologies in #DoctoralWriting #DoctoralResearch #ResearchWriting?

Hi #AcademicMastodon

Who do you follow/subscribe to for up-to-date #PostDoc positions in #UK #Europe, beyond?

I know they're advertised across media but is there a reliable feed/jiscmail that collates in 1 place?

Asking on behalf of my many #PGRs who often come to me for advice on where to find out about Post-Doc opportunities.

Thanks.

Two years in the making, but milestone number one completed: submitted my qualitative research study for review by my advisors. Exhausted, but no rest for the wicked; time to get my quantitative study ready to roll. #groundedtheory #doctoralresearch

@sharplm

Wow!

So, I've given it the same 'story title' (which is deliberately the content of my book) but started it off differently: quite a story, in each case!

Can't begin to fathom how much better #GPT-4 will be and keeping an eye on the implications for #AcWri and #DoctoralWriting #DoctoralResearch

It's not made its way over to #AcademicMastodon, yet, but the #OpenUniversity research community - via the Graduate School, which employs me - has a phenomenally creative tradition of baking research, which is simply outstanding.

Posting 2 of several brilliant entries (currently still being shared on the bird).

Voting starts tomorrow and ends 29 November #BakeYourResearch #PhDLife #AcademicChatter #DoctoralResearch
