How far we are into #AcWriMo seems to directly correspond to the number of tabs I have open... whenever I feel badly about this, I just remind myself that I defo have less than 7500 tabs open, so I'm okay 😅 #resdev #highered #academicsky #academicchatter #PhDchat

Asking PhD students “Do you feel like an impostor?” is wild—every hand goes up. But they can’t all be impostors. You’re doing things for the first time, stretching your limits… of course it feels strange. Keep going. You belong more than you think.

Higher Ed retaliation is real.

The fact that so many survivors stay silent isn’t proof that it doesn’t happen—it’s proof of how well universities suppress it.

We have a funded NERC PhD studentship!

Selfish X chromosomes are these bizarre things where males carrying the selfish X suffer from imploding testes. Lots to do in this space, especially in evolutionary, stress, and infection biology.

Please share!

An advertisement for the project Cryptc consequences of a selfish X chromosome. It shows chromosome mapping indicating many inversions, flies with eye colour phenotypes (wild-type brighter than selfish X), and sections of testes that show ordered (wild-type) or deformed structure (selfish X).

If a student is struggling, the university asks: Why aren’t they working harder?

But the real question is: Why isn’t the system working better?

Academia loves asking for proof.

Proof of abuse. Proof of discrimination. Proof your pain is valid.

But when it’s time to hold institutions accountable? Suddenly, testimony isn’t enough.

UNIVERSITIES = CORPORATE BUREAUCRACIES

📈 Admin salaries rise
📉 Teaching budgets shrink
🎓 Students pay the price

If universities really valued education, why does admin expansion outpace faculty hiring?

For Sónia Cardoso, Lusófona University, we must reclaim the doctorate as a space of critical thinking, care and epistemic plurality and challenge current systems that value compliance over creativity. 🎓

Promotional image for a EUA-CDE doctoral debate article by Sonia Cardoso from Lusófona University. The text reads "Twenty years ago, the Salzburg Principles sought to anchor doctoral education in ideals like autonomy, creativity and social responsibility. A noble vision. But in today’s university system, does this vision still hold?"
