This past week at #exoplanets5 has been insane. I consider myself somewhat of an extrovert but all this socialising and networking can be tough. So I wonder, how do you deal with these kinds of events? #academicchatter #phd #phdjourney

Anyone still around from two years ago when I occasionally posted about the start of my #PhDjourney and its progress?

Update: I now have a (real) outline for my dissertation! I used the #Canvas in #Obsidian to visualize it. Very useful (and a free alternative to #Scrintal!)

It feels a little unreal, but it seems like there's actually a book coming out of this.

Took some valuable advice on organizing the whole thing from these two books:
1. The PhD Writing Handbook (very concise and straight to the point, great checklists) https://www.bloomsbury.com/us/phd-writing-handbook-9781137497703/
2. Authoring a PhD (sometimes a bit paternalistic to me, but still very useful)
https://link.springer.com/book/10.1007/978-0-230-80208-7

Now I have to start structuring the chapters. I hope to have three chapters drafted by the end of the summer. And one chapter ready for publication in an edited volume by September ... wooo, this is exciting (and, of course, intimidating)!

Hey everyone, welcome to #BuzzingWithBibi!

I‘m Bibi and I am a #PhD student in #astronomy and #astrophysics.

In Buzzing with Bibi, I want to talk my challenges, influences, and experiences as the first one in my family to choose the academic path.

Today‘s topic: Struggling with #finances

Thanks for being here, let me know what you think

As we gear up to launch #BuzzingWithBibi, I'm sharing some of the ‘most common’ questions thrown my way over the years - from family, friends, and even curious strangers - about why I chose the university path.

#StayTuned and mark your calendars for 'Buzzing with Bibi: My #FirstGenJourney' coming this February!

It is happening!

Join me as I share the highs, lows, + everything in between on my path as a #firstGen student on the road to a #PhD. Let's explore the challenges, triumphs, failures, + the lessons learned along the way. Unfiltered, brutally honest. Stay tuned for ‚Buzzing with Bibi: My First-Gen Journey'!

Follow #BuzzingWithBibi, & share with everyone who could benefit from this series!

I have seen a few fellow researchers doing the #MonthOfArXiv on the bird app and I am really intrigued to try it.

The goal is to read and write a thread about a #paper on #arXiV every day (where there are new papers ofc). Anyone up for a #challenge together?

I just finished my lecture at the #KnutLundmark Days at #LundUniversity, organised by the #AstronomicalYouth #AU in #Sweden.

I love giving lectures/talks in front of high-school students who are excited about #astronomy.

I will upload my slides to my webpage in the coming days

@JuliaVSeidel Thanks for inspiring my title

Better sharing this late than never

I'm happy to announce that I've been awarded a one-year #ESO studentship to work with Elyar Sedaghati and @JuliaVSeidel on #ESPRESSO

See you in August, #Chile!

It’s “hooding” official.
