PhD Student Tips for Preparing a Scientific Conference Presentation

[@FREELEARNING]

It's interesting how your university is diversifying the activities for PhD students. You are learning, teaching, summer school, etc. I feel really happy for you to have this great opportunity because, in other universities, people are just reading articles, doing experiments and writing articles. And as every video you are sharing good stuff, so thank you.

Yes it definitely depends on the university! Typically I think there will be some teaching activities for most PhD students. But definitely because my programme is structured and is a CRT there tends to be more activities. Glad you are enjoying the content!

Thanks so much. This has been so useful for my research. Just preparing for a conference which is more about asking research questions than answering them. Got a lot of tips from your presentation including not doing the whole "this is my work" intro.

[@PhDandProductivity]

Wonderful! So glad that this helped you!

Songbird garden! I am so sorry I realised now editing my video that I missed one of your questions yesterday about building relationships with students and supervisors. To be honest I am a bit anti-social in the workplace so I am not the best person to ask ;) but in my university we have a office lunch area that makes it easy to have quick chats with other PhD students and supervisors. At the moment my university is holding coffee mornings and things like that over zoom since we are still working from home. I think also joining some clubs or societies can be helpful. As well, twitter is probably the biggest social media for researchers to connect (but I don't fullllly understand twitter yet)

As a fellow AI phd student, I really love your channel!! Super helpful xx Could you create a video about how you write neat academic ML code that can be added to a paper and the tool/technologies you use? I always struggle with that.

[@PhDandProductivity]

Thanks so much for your comment. I actually don't put my codes into papers. But I do with algorithms, and since I write my papers in latex I use their built in commands for this. www.overleaf.com/learn/latex/algorithms

[@funkysapir]

Hi, sorry for my English because I'm not a native speaker 😅 I meant to ask if you could make a video/explain how you write clean code for academic purposes and what tools you're using, how is your project built etc. I think it could be really helpful ☺️

[@PhDandProductivity]

@@funkysapir I use Jupyter notebooks with python so that way I can add some notes in the markdown.

[@ResearchBeast]

Good work. May I ask how did you record this video?
