Researcher Ramblings: Of Role-Models and Women Researchers.

15. October 2017 Divya Researcher Ramblings

For a while now, I have been thinking about gender issues, a bit differently than I did before. I could attribute this to a lot of life events, but the part I’m going to focus on started with the release of Wonder woman. I saw the poster and thought ‘wow,[…]

Researcher Life: Reflecting on Conferences

8. September 2017 Divya Researcher Life

As I traveled back from the last conference this year, I reflect on each of the 4 conferences/summer schools of the last 12 months, comparing and contrasting my take home from this year of travel and talks. Here’s my take on my recent conference experiences… This year (Sep 2016-Sep 2017)[…]

Researcher Life: You are growing

7. August 2017 Divya Researcher Life

These days, every time I talk to someone who just started their PhD, I am reminded of the long way I have come. As it goes with seeing someone at a stage you were a few years back, I’ve started reflecting on how I have grown in the 3 years[…]

Researcher Ramblings: The Joy of Dimensionality

31. July 2017 Divya Researcher Ramblings

Mental health has come a long, long way in a very short time. The way we diagnose and judge is constantly changing. For instance, it wasn’t long ago that diagnosis was made by checking the shape of the skull. And it was also not too long ago that the only[…]

Researcher life: Bear in mind

24. July 2017 Divya Researcher Life, work-life balance

So first, an update for my readers – After a long absence from my blog, for which I send across my heart-felt apologies, I have decided to post more often, and even post shorter articles when I’m on the go. I hope you still like this form of more uninhibited[…]

Researcher Ramblings: Why the Sun Matters!

9. February 2017 Divya Mental Health, Researcher Ramblings

It’s 15.46. The lights are on. I sit at my office table looking at my ToDo list. Is this going to be one of those monologues like ‘I’m stuck in this abyss and I’m documenting it so someone knows how my last hours were spent’? Probably! Winter blues are best[…]

Researcher Life: Of Work and Vacations

21. November 2016 Divya Researcher Life, work-life balance

Before we start, my apologies for not having written in over 2 months. Another apology in advance for this post being really short. It has a simple message that doesn’t need too many words. Since my last post 2 months back, I’ve been swarmed with work, then I had a[…]

Researcher Life: Of Supervisors and Supervising

1. September 2016 Divya Researcher Life

As PhDs, we are in a complicated position. We are getting the highest degree possible, but still at the start of our careers. We are learning to deal with our superiors, while having (in most cases) students looking up to us for their Bachelor/ Masters projects. If you are working[…]

Researcher Ramblings: Science as its Biggest Stakeholder

10. August 2016 Divya Researcher Ramblings

Time for another Rambling Post. This time, the point I want to make simply takes a few sentences. In our everyday struggles as researchers, we are caught up in being answerable to our supervisors, funding bodies, publication agencies and in some cases, our immediate consumers. These are, of course, our[…]

Researcher Life: The Storm

11. July 2016 Divya Researcher Life

Yes, it’s here. After the long wait, the storm has started. Honestly speaking, I started writing a blog post last week, right before the onset of the Storm, and I could never finish it! So this week, thankfully to the end of my storm, is a new post – all[…]
