Channel description
Hi there! I am a professor of ecology at Freie Universität Berlin, Germany. In this channel I'm talking about life in academia from graduate student to running a lab and everything in between. Topics include publishing, writing, reviewing, research strategy, rejections and success - and plenty of advice for doctoral students, postdocs, and early career researchers. Covering all the ins and outs of academic life from the perspective of an ecology lab. There are playlists for doctoral students, postdocs, new PIs, and lists covering more general topics.
