Surfing Through Life as a Postdoc
Канада
Добавлен 14 июн 2015
Hi, I'm a postdoc, doing random videos on anything that catches my eye on my life journey. Postdoc lifestyle is basically a surfer lifestyle.
For the most part, I will be focusing on the two main topics:
- Applying for grants, particularly for the MSCA PF (summer time). All products can be found on my Gumroad: socialdatascientist.gumroad.com
- Web-development and DevOps
Please subscribe if you are a similar cross-breed of an academic and a coder!

Please tell me how much this Marie Curie fellowship will be given to a postdoc in Italy. Also tell me if one earns around 7000 Euros in Italy, then is this taxable?
It is taxable. Unfortunately, I don't know what are the exact numbers for Italy.
Hey There, It's Borhan here! I'm a huge fan of your "Surfing Through Life as a Postdoc" RUclips channel. Your content is always top-notch, and I can see the passion and effort you pour into each video. I believe you have incredible potential to reach an even wider audience with a solid RUclips strategy. I would love to schedule a short meeting with you to discuss how I can help you grow your channel faster. This is not a sales call, but an opportunity to share ideas and offer assistance. Let me know if you're interested, and we can find a convenient time to chat. Thanks for your time and for creating such amazing content.
Do you mind if ask you, did you finish your post-doc at the Universiy of Oxford?
yep
You are cool!
thanks, she is
Thank you. Do you have download guidelines
on some other videos not on this one
i think 777 is not safe should set 775 or 755;❤🎉 if you can access terminal better to run php artisan storage:link
good catch, thanks!
Very helpful, thank you so much !
Glad it was helpful!
The video has really helped me from Kenya. Thank you.
Glad it was helpful!
my question is , after cloning it .. can we run the project now ?
if it's a web-app then no. You need to set up everything else (nginx, apache server, database etc..)
Thank you very much for your dedicated guidance through valuable YT videos🤝👍
It's my pleasure
Thank you for the information but there is a need to move from general into specific tips and sentences.
Thank you!
First of all, thank you so much for your videos. I am trying to apply for a MSCA PF and this is gold. Having said that, I would like to ask you a question: is there any place or website where I can take a look at actual examples of applications?
no, I haven't seen many. There are bits and parts from an application in 2016 here: shannonchance.net/blog-posts/, but overall, I think it will be difficult to find a free sample online. Try your friends who got MSCA PF before and the research services of the host institution -- they usually do have examples they can share with their incoming applicants.
@@PostdocLife Honestly, I don't know anyone who has applied for a MSCA PF in philosophy, but that link will help me. Thanks!
Thank you very much
You are very welcome!
please can i request your email? thank u
you can ask your questions here...
The example is good, yet even more details would be great. Be smart and write even shorter sentences than in the given example. For example, instead of mentioning departments better add references to articles or webpages.
I agree on more details and sentence structure. As to references to articles in this part of the applications -- I'm not sure about it. They belong in part 1 "Excellence." Also, do not add references to webpages -- evaluators are instructed not to access any external links on the application -- it's not useful.
@@PostdocLife Sure, reviewers do not have to access webpages. Similarly there is no obligation to check articles. Any reference is just proof that your statement has a base. In that case it is better to add a weblink, for example, for an existing course than writing its code.
Writing that you plan to publish in Nature is a bad idea as it does to match with the MSCA scope. On the opposite, it sounds like a risky promise, which might downgrade the evaluation.
There is a rule that they don't evaluate journals based on Impact Factor, goes both ways (high or low as long as it is a reputable journal). Nature is just a stand-in for a "reputable journal in your area." But in general, I don't think that they will downgrade you for ambition. MSCA PFs should be ambitious. My two cents.
@@PostdocLife I was downgraded exactly for being too ambitious. First, promising to publish too many papers. Second, for aiming at high impact journals. Even without MSCA I managed to publish all desired papers in Q1 journals, but with limited resources (thus limited methods, mobility, etc) reached high impact journals much later. Anyway, Nature is not the kind of ambition that is expected from an applicant.
Cool approach!
great you liked it!
Thank you very much.
You are welcome!

How do you include messages on findings in the proposal? Thanks
mostly, I think it's two-fold. Sometimes, your project hypotheses might be interesting by themselves for dissemination/communication activities. But more likely, you need to think given that you confirm your hypothesis, what problems (for target audiences) it will solve? I guess that would be a more interesting message. Here is a video that gives a great idea how this part will be evaluated: ruclips.net/video/7tFiOCiVZJg/видео.html

Great 👌 Thank you very much
you're welcome
Thanks for your valuable tips and time 🤝

Thank you so much!

Hello Ma'am
Hello 😊
Thank you❤
You're welcome 😊
Its a full nonsense to have such a criteria. Part of the emerging woke ideology in science too
sic vita est
Thanks for this video. How do I make it work without the SSL steps?
skip the certbot step, just set up DNS records in your domain provider. It should work without.
@@PostdocLife Sorry I meant How do I make it work without a domain name?
@@thecyrilcril if you do it up to the certbot (14:54) you should be able to access it by the server's IP address
what if you applied at the 8th of the PhD year as last chance and if it does not get through at first application ,then can you resubmitted with based on the reviewers comment if it gets more than 70%? or you lost the chance forever after 8years of PhD
I think unless there are career interruptions within those 8 years (parental leave, sickness, unemployment, etc.), or you are a EU citizen coming back from a life-long career abroad, it might not be possible.
@@PostdocLife thanks for fast reply and yes , the career breaks due to pandemic as happened to most of us and following with unemployments in due time plus the recent unprecedented global financial issues happening or whatever you can call that makes not allowing to secure any jobs in that time. hence, not sure if it really make sense to try that as a last chance after 8years at first time application cause not sure anyone got it at the first time application tho. also I have read some posts in talkacademia about the cv sections that not having published papers within the last 3 years is a red flag?
@@username42 not necessarily a red flag, but still might not be helping your application. It is up to you to decide about whether it's worth applying, the application is tough and will require a lot of time, which in all fairness might be better spent doing something else. But it depends on each person's situation.
@@PostdocLife yeah it depends on the how much commitment left to stay in academia but also still could be better than being unemployed and searching for a job, so applying in any case afaik from the posts in forums, it is a roll of a dice or a pure luck , some says cv issues, some supervisors issues, or getting less score in second time application , in any case depends on the human review evaluation.
para laravel 10 use esto sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ondrej/php sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get install php8.1 php8.1-cli php8.1-mbstring zip unzip sudo apt-get install php8.1-xml sudo apt-get install php8.1-curl sudo apt-get install php8.1-bcmath
en minuto 7:34 es asi, para el que no sabe, cat ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub
saludos lo único que falto configurar es con GITHUB ACTIONS, para al subir desde el git, docker tome los cambios y se suban al servidor viendo los cambios en producción, del resto todo esta funcionando, voy por el minuto 7:36, si puede sube un video haciendo lo que te digo me serviría de ayuda
sorry, I didn't quite understand. But do you mean this: ruclips.net/video/R15Jj2zs1z0/видео.html&lc=UgzWTn28l1Ylid4jh4V4AaABAg
Saludos, con "github actions"se puede conectar a docker y hacer que docker tome los cambios, cuando se sube un cambio en github, con "github actions" esto hace que el código que se sube a github este actualizado, y este lo envía al servidor, eso lo hace docker, eso fue la configuración que te falto y estoy buscando como lograrlo @@PostdocLife
