If anyone attending #RGSIBG21 next week is feeling a bit overwhelmed by how many sessions there are (🙋🏻♀️) and how to make the most of it @emmarbates and I wrote a blog with some tips based on our first experiences of attending that might help: gcyfrg.files.wordpress.com/2…
I highly recommend being part of the @gcyfrg committee! It’s been a wonderful experience and great to be part of such a supportive, friendly group ☺️ Happy to chat to anyone if you have any questions!
‘Intention to submit’ form done! ✅ Now back to thesis editing and (more importantly?) deciding what food to celebrate with later 🙌🍕🧀 #TheEndIsNear #PhDLife #Foodie
You know that thesis deadlines are getting to you when you let yourself vacuum the house for 15 minutes as a ‘reward’ for meeting a mini goal #phdlife #workhardplayhard
It has been a delight so far! I’m incredibly impressed by all of our wonderful presenters. Throughly looking forward to question time and a group discussion after the break 🤓
👪 We're handing over to @gcyfrg for Session 5.
🧑🏼🍼Join @emmarbates and Dr. Maria Alfaro Munoz to hear from 7 presenters and discuss current work in the geographies of children, youth and family.
An indication of my current state of mind:
1. *Plays a rain white noise soundtrack to help me concentrate*
2. Goes to make a cup of tea
3. Returns to desk and panics that there's a leak in the house so frantically tries to work out where the sound of water is coming from🤦♀️
Day (who even knows? 🤷♀️) of lockdown and I have taken to building a den in the living room and working in it. 10/10 recommend if you are struggling to concentrate 👌 #phdlife
If you’re seeking a supportive and friendly environment to present your research, look no further! 👇👀
Calling #postgrad #geography researchers!
We're looking for single-slide presentations on one challenge you've faced in your PhD.
These will be showcased at the @RGS_IBG Postgrad Forum on 20th April at 10am.
Please send 150 wd abstracts to e.bates2@lboro.ac.uk by 2nd March! 😁
If you're struggling to concentrate as much as I am this Monday afternoon, get yourself a nice warm beverage and take a look at some of the tips that @e_ackerley and I have put together for working from home 👇☕️
For many it's been tough having to adjust to working from home.
But our #postgrad officers @emmarbates and @e_ackerley have offered some #MondayMotivation with their tips for working from home! 🏠

It was a delight to present a session with @KristinaGavran and @KatherineWoodh4 as part of the @WritingGymLboro team this morning! We discussed the challenges associated with writing and worked together develop strategies according to your own writing style #LboroDRWellbeing 💛📝
This is such an incredibly important project that certainly deserves a vote if you have a spare minute! 👇
Dear Colleagues, Friends and Family! James Esson and I are nominated for a research award for our project on barriers to student achievement. The award winner is decided by public vote. Please vote for us here: lboro.ac.uk/research/calibre… Thank you 😊

Start your week off right by coming along to the #LboroWritingGym this morning from 10-12 in D202! We have two 45 minute focused ‘writing’ sessions and a 15 minute break...plus homemade brownies, tea and coffee 😊☕️📝
I'm looking to speak to final year @lborouniversity women and @lboroalumni about their career plans and uni/workplace experiences. If anyone knows of anyone who I might be able to chat to, I'd really any suggestions (info on the pic attached). Thank you!😊
@LboroCareers, @LoughboroughSU, @LboroDocCollege or @pgr_president - do you think that you might be able to help in any way too?
So excited to be running our #LboroWritingGym January Writing Bootcamp this week, along with the wonderful @KristinaGavran, @KatherineWoodh4 and @VaniNaik7 (in spirit 😊) #LboroWritingBootcamp
It was a pleasure to work with @sophcranston and @DrHPW on this paper and the wider project. It's been an incredible learning experience and I'm keen to see how the conversation around student #distinction and #employability may develop. Thank you @ASETOnline for the support!
Our @ASETOnline funded research has been published in #geoforum situating student's international #workplacements as a form of #distinction amidst discussions of #employability and #youthmobility. Available here: authors.elsevier.com/a/1aHLM… @DrHPW @emmarbates
It was very exciting discussing plans for the Doctoral Researcher Well-being Week with @DrKKalawsky and @KristinaGavran this afternoon! Looking forward to further discussions with the rest of the wonderful @WritingGymLboro team, @VaniNaik7 and @KatherineWoodh4 😊📝
