Video published 2011. Presentation 2010. Still considered well presented after 9-10 years. Very motivated indeed by Dr IR. Niki Kringos. Doing a PhD after retirement is challenging. Googling Youtubing etc for pointers is available.. thank goodness for technology today.. Thank you Dr Niki. Completed 4 years bachelors part-time and currently in my 4th of 6 year Part-time PhD by research Program after 25 year break, your youtube video is a motivation.
What I learned during my phd experience is that to be HONEST with yourself, your lab mates and most importantly with your supervisor. PhD is a team work...
as a 3rd year PhD student I think all these points are very relevant. I think I'll come back and watch this video a few more times just to keep all these ideas fresh in my mind!
Dr. Anthony Wallace AA BSc MA DrPH-C thanks for ur inspirational comment. I am a PhD student in my second semester, I was completely lost and I am still somehow, however I've started to enjoy it.
I find this very encouraging because it demystifies the PhD research by focusing on the issue of what is in it for the PhD candidate, .i.e. the added professional value this is for the candidate - not the examiners' signatures.
Awesome. Excellent presentation by excellent presenter. Very helpful. This video just pushed me into my research. Thank you Dr. ir. Niki Kringos. Hope to see more from you.
As a 2nd year PhD student/RUclipsr in Biomedical Science (with 5 years biotech experience), many things sound soooooo familiar! Great delivery of her content, she is honest but still selling it! Fantastic video!
Ok, l am just at the beginning of my doctorate degree and the advice provided in this video are of paramount importance for me. In fact, l will try to carefully follow these different steps and l hope to accomplish my PhD degree in the right Time. Thanks doc.
This was great, I've just started my PhD and am still going through a bit of an adjustment to being so in control of (and responsible for) everything. I like how the speaker was frank but funny and a lot of the things she talks about seem so obvious but when you start a PhD you might not think of them in so clear a way. It was a really motivational talk :)
I am a Latino man. My doctoral advisor a woman with a sanctimonious and dominant personality. She was a horror. We did not get along at all. I could not tell her I feared her or how much I dreaded working with her. BTW, she was not really interested in my research top.
She is so beautiful and intelligent. I'm flattered. I loved her strong beliefs that is giving her so much confidence in her talk. Wish i can to talk her once.
One tip I would add is don't let the first few month impostor syndrome get you down, its an exponential learning curve! (feel free to visit my channel for some tips XD). Great video and excellent tips!

This is an awesome presentation about the PhD process. Going in my first year, I was lost and scared but overtime it became very enjoyable. Take care

Agreed!

You're absolutely right!
Thank you for your devotion to up grade the student knowledge
Many thanks for this video!
So helpful thank you
I'm disappointed with the amount of comments that are sexist and unrelated to the amazing, smart and insightful talk that she delivered.
Great video. Very positive, motivating and also realistic. Very appreciated.
Great speech! Thank you.
I wish I watched this video while still on my PhD...Until I owned my PhD, I was completely lost.
This is very helpful.
I like her and the content she presented

Sorry to hear. How did you manage to resolve this?
your body language was nice, thank you so much
Very nice. Appreciated it and found it useful. In India....
Very honest presentation
Excellent! Mostly common sense, however sometimes we can't see the wood for the trees.
This is very good. Anyone knows how to access the full talk?
Thank you.
I found it very useful.
Interesting. Very similar to Th.D. programs they way they used to be.
What about if the supervisor change the subject and push it in the ways he like using all kind of body language and acting
Wow! Finish in 4 years and get paid! No one in my cohort finished in under 8 years and we paid them!
