3/ Using your own voice takes COURAGE. Expressing ideas confidently, even in difficult situations, prepares you for challenging discussions and complex professional settings. #PhDLife 🧵

2/ Another key idea: The real outcome of a PhD or postdoc isn’t just a dissertation — IT IS A PERSON. Research shapes individuals into problem-solvers and contributors. Communication is crucial in this process, even when it means engaging with controversy or discomfort.🧵

As a researcher, real personal growth comes from INTERACTIONS WITH PEOPLE OUTSIDE ACADEMIA. That’s why communicating your research matters. Why? Because these interactions spark new questions and ideas. Not my words, but those of @martecwsolheim.bsky.social, prorector at @unistavanger.bsky.social 🧵

Social media networking — a course for health science PhD students — mostly relevant for those in the Nordic region.
My two-part workshop is in Copenhagen with the main focus on LinkedIn, but also #Bluesky. FREE for PhDs at most Nordic unis! shorturl.at/Cr8NV I appreciate any reposts 😀! #MedSky

💧💧 I am in Stavanger, Norway leading a workshop. This time, I'm bringing something special: a CustomGPT tool designed to create personalized communication strategies for each participant researcher. I checked: European data confirms that this is not just a one-off thing. It does rain here (see map😀)

Just visited an early morning, other-worldly 🛸, IMDEA Software Institute in Madrid, to do a social media workshop. Fascinating discussions on leveraging social media for research ensued! Here is a collage from my quick visit:
