#phdchat tweet log - 1st May 2013

 

@NSRiazat (01/05/13 18:30:33) - Welcome to #phdchat - the topic for tonight is '...when is the time right to publish...?' #phd #highered (original tweet)

@BeckyAGilbert (01/05/13 18:31:00) - Happy to see post-pub reviews via blogging, @PLOSONE comment system, etc. Open debate very helpful for #PhD students! #phdchat#ecrchat (original tweet)

@sesync (01/05/13 18:32:36) - #Job opportunity at @IanEcoCheck @UMCES: Science Integrator http://t.co/bM5ZYiPUIN #phdchat #scicomm (original tweet)

@NSRiazat (01/05/13 18:32:43) - 'I can't publish because I haven't done any 'real' research yet' is something that I've come across before. Thoughts? #phdchat (original tweet)

@NSRiazat (01/05/13 18:34:05) - Also feeling that should be 'full immersion into the litarature' before publication is another perception....but when is 'enough'? #phdchat(original tweet)

@EmmaBurnettx (01/05/13 18:34:40) - @NSRiazat I haven't come across that, but have heard that because data not analysed fully, they have nothing to publish #phdchat(original tweet)

@NSRiazat (01/05/13 18:35:14) - To get us started...at what point in the research process did people decide/or not decide to publish? #phdchat (original tweet)

@MyHarmReduction (01/05/13 18:35:42) - @NSRiazat I think that's a function of the 'imposter syndrome' we feel as well! #phdchat (original tweet)

@andienevitt (01/05/13 18:36:01) - @NSRiazat The more I read, the more need to read. Full immersion ain't possible IMO, but trying anyway is what sets scholars apart#phdchat (original tweet)

@NSRiazat (01/05/13 18:36:04) - @EmmaBurnettx ~ interesting perceptions as to 'when' people feel they are ready to publish. What about pilot studies? :-) #phdchat (original tweet)

@RyanPharmilton (01/05/13 18:36:07) - @EmmaBurnettx @NSRiazat I think maybe people aren't focusing on small enough segments on their work? I try and break my work down. #PhDchat (original tweet)

@EmmaBurnettx (01/05/13 18:36:21) - @Neilwigg: @EmmaBurnettx @NSRiazat publish early, publish often! :-) ~ 100% agree! #phdchat (original tweet)

@NSRiazat (01/05/13 18:36:47) - @MyHarmReduction ~ Hi Sheila - please elaborate on 'imposter syndrome'. #phdchat (original tweet)

@RyanPharmilton (01/05/13 18:37:22) - @NSRiazat I submitted my first paper a few months into my second year. Currently writing another paper (still in second year).#PhDchat (original tweet)

@NSRiazat (01/05/13 18:37:38) - @RyanPharmilton @EmmaBurnettx ~ have heard PhDs say they have managed to get three/four publications out of the completed thesis.#phdchat (original tweet)

@EmmaBurnettx (01/05/13 18:37:42) - @RyanPharmilton: @EmmaBurnettx @NSRiazat same - my publication brain was in gear very early one thinking about opportunities#phdchat (original tweet)

@AmandaMichelle (01/05/13 18:37:56) - < "@NSRiazat: 'I can't publish because I haven't done any 'real' research yet' is something that I've come across before. Thoughts?#phdchat (original tweet)

@NSRiazat (01/05/13 18:38:08) - @RyanPharmilton @EmmaBurnettx ~ focusing on different sections of thesis findings/literature for each publication. #phdchat (original tweet)

@MyHarmReduction (01/05/13 18:38:34) - @NSRiazat In this contxt, I mean that we (doct students) minimize our work and contribution among the giants we admire from afar#phdchat (original tweet)

@AmandaMichelle (01/05/13 18:38:43) - i have a thought paper that i wrote last year that i would LOVE to submit, but i don't have anyone i trust to look it over #phdchat(original tweet)

@NSRiazat (01/05/13 18:39:02) - @andienevitt - agree with more read the more need to read. This is a long process so how long do we wait. :-) #phdchat (original tweet)

@MyHarmReduction (01/05/13 18:39:21) - @NSRiazat Feel like imposters playing along with the big kids. I know I struggle with this personally sometimes. #phdchat (original tweet)

@EmmaBurnettx (01/05/13 18:39:47) - @NSRiazat: @RyanPharmilton just about to submit 3rd paper. First 2 structured lit review, next is a section of my findings #phdchat(original tweet)

@NSRiazat (01/05/13 18:39:48) - @AmandaMichelle ~ hope we can help on #phdchat. What about supervisor? I think I would ask my supervisors to look over my work?#phdchat (original tweet)

@sheenagrad (01/05/13 18:39:48) - I ended up involved it lots of big projects and now don't have any small/simple projects for "easy" publication. #phdchat (original tweet)

@AmandaMichelle (01/05/13 18:39:50) - hard 2 know what's publishable "@EmmaBurnettx: @Neilwigg: @EmmaBurnettx @NSRiazat publish early, publish often! :-) ~ 100% agree! #phdchat (original tweet)

@RyanPharmilton (01/05/13 18:39:57) - @NSRiazat Definitely. Often people chose too much work that would be too large for a single paper. Easier to break it down. #PhDchat(original tweet)

@AmandaMichelle (01/05/13 18:40:22) - i'm particularly worried b/c i have to submit in order to advance to candidacy. #phdchat (original tweet)

@AmandaMichelle (01/05/13 18:40:47) - alas... "@NSRiazat: hope we can help on #phdchat. What about supervisor? I think I would ask my supervisors to look over my work?#phdchat (original tweet)

@NSRiazat (01/05/13 18:40:55) - @EmmaBurnettx @Neilwigg ~ publishing early = great opportunity for feedback (hopefully not scathing) to incorporate final thesis. #phdchat(original tweet)

@EmmaBurnettx (01/05/13 18:41:22) - I also think that publishing as you go adds more weight to your thesis ~ demonstration of a worthy contribution to knowledge #phdchat(original tweet)

@NSRiazat (01/05/13 18:41:32) - @RyanPharmilton ~ excellent progress on publishing. Well done - how did you find the juggling publlishing with thesis work? #phdchat(original tweet)

@AmandaMichelle (01/05/13 18:41:39) - @NSRiazat my advisor situation is weird. suffice it to say i don't really have one. i'm in year 2 & still searching. #phdchat (original tweet)

@andienevitt (01/05/13 18:41:56) - @NSRiazat Don't know for sure. I think the key would be in the writing itself - outline scope clearly, signal potential directions? #phdchat(original tweet)

@NSRiazat (01/05/13 18:42:38) - @MyHarmReduction ~ good point - it's about contextualising contribution in terms of other work done in area. #phdchat (original tweet)

@AmandaMichelle (01/05/13 18:42:39) - @Neilwigg @EmmaBurnettx @NSRiazat i have no research or lit, just thoughts/ideas based off coursework. #phdchat (original tweet)

@EmmaBurnettx (01/05/13 18:42:47) - @NSRiazat @neilwigg definitely good viva prep! #phdchat (original tweet)

@AmandaMichelle (01/05/13 18:42:55) - o/ RT @MyHarmReduction: Feel like imposters playing along with the big kids. I know I struggle with this personally sometimes.#phdchat (original tweet)

@sheenagrad (01/05/13 18:43:20) - @AmandaMichelle are you worried about getting scooped? Maybe share it with someone is a tangentially related field. #phdchat (original tweet)

@NSRiazat (01/05/13 18:43:42) - @EmmaBurnettx @RyanPharmilton ~ how did you make the decision as to when time was right to publish/right outlet? #phdchat (original tweet)

@RyanPharmilton (01/05/13 18:43:45) - @NSRiazat It was hard at times as I was focusing on two streams of work. Also finding gaps in the work meant I had to go back.#PhDchat (original tweet)

@EmmaBurnettx (01/05/13 18:44:17) - @AmandaMichelle: @Neilwigg @NSRiazat but as you progress - ideas will develop then potential for publication later #phdchat (original tweet)

@AmandaMichelle (01/05/13 18:44:19) - @sheenagrad hadn't really even worried about getting scooped, although that, too. i just feel like i may be missing something huge.#phdchat (original tweet)

@RyanPharmilton (01/05/13 18:44:59) - @EmmaBurnettx @NSRiazat @Neilwigg Agree. I am oddly looking forward to the peer review feedback. Will be great development tool.#PhDchat (original tweet)

@NSRiazat (01/05/13 18:45:04) - @EmmaBurnettx @Neilwigg ~ useful to get others perspectives apart from supervisors. #phdchat (original tweet)

@CharlotteBRF (01/05/13 18:46:00) - @rociorodtjer @rach_scottie check out #PhDchat (original tweet)

@AmandaMichelle (01/05/13 18:46:06) - true... just gotta happen w/in 1 yr! "@EmmaBurnettx: but as you progress - ideas will develop then potential for publication later#phdchat (original tweet)

@EmmaBurnettx (01/05/13 18:46:07) - @NSRiazat: @EmmaBurnettx @RyanPharmilton ~ was on finishing different chapters & knowing there was little out there about the topic#phdchat (original tweet)

@NSRiazat (01/05/13 18:46:26) - Does publication always have to be in academic journals - what about practitioner publications/blogs/wikis and other outlets? #phdchat(original tweet)

@RyanPharmilton (01/05/13 18:46:35) - @NSRiazat @EmmaBurnettx I was investigating a class of drugs then moved onto another. Felt it good to publish the finished work.#PhDchat (original tweet)

@NSRiazat (01/05/13 18:47:15) - A doctoral student needs obstinate perseverance to succeed in publication - article rejection rate very high. #phdchat (original tweet)

@EmmaBurnettx (01/05/13 18:47:46) - @RyanPharmilton: @EmmaBurnettx @NSRiazat @Neilwigg Took me a little while not to take feedback personally! #phdchat (original tweet)

@NSRiazat (01/05/13 18:47:54) - Havign said that...it is persistence which sets apart those who get published from those who dont...? #phdchat #thinkingaloud (original tweet)

@sheenagrad (01/05/13 18:48:23) - @AmandaMichelle Then I say share it! Getting some feedback will kickstart your process #phdchat (original tweet)

@AmandaMichelle (01/05/13 18:48:39) - *weeps* RT @NSRiazat: A doctoral student needs obstinate perseverance to succeed in publication - article rejection rate very high.#phdchat (original tweet)

@EKnight_OST (01/05/13 18:48:49) - We need more of these! RT @sesync #Job opportunity at @IanEcoCheck @UMCES: Science Integrator http://t.co/vhhichoNW8 #phdchat#scicomm (original tweet)

@NSRiazat (01/05/13 18:49:26) - How do we learn the different conventions/genres and styles of each journal for publication? #phdchat (original tweet)

@AmandaMichelle (01/05/13 18:49:32) - that's such a great question @NSRiazat! alas at my uni, nobody cares if it isn't a journal. literally can count against us! #phdchat(original tweet)

@EmmaBurnettx (01/05/13 18:49:57) - @NSRiazat & focus & patience. Takes a lot of time to recreate PhD work to journal manuscripts. Are quite different #phdchat (original tweet)

@RyanPharmilton (01/05/13 18:50:20) - @EmmaBurnettx @NSRiazat @Neilwigg Yes. That is something I am worried about. Thick skin required? #PhDchat (original tweet)

@LUDissertation (01/05/13 18:50:44) - @NSRiazat Match of journal/outlet and paper. Read multiple issues of the journal before trying to submit anything! #phdchat (original tweet)

@NSRiazat (01/05/13 18:50:58) - @EmmaBurnettx ~ have been looking at a few favourite journals as been writing thesis at conventions/styles. #phdchat (original tweet)

@NSRiazat (01/05/13 18:51:29) - @EmmaBurnettx ~ knowing precisely what editors and reviewers are looking for can be like looking for the proverbial lost needle. #phdchat(original tweet)

@LUDissertation (01/05/13 18:51:52) - @NSRiazat If you're citing that journal a lot for your dissertation, it's probably a good fit for your publication! #phdchat (original tweet)

@DrAshCasey (01/05/13 18:52:20) - @RyanPharmilton @emmaburnettx @nsriazat @neilwigg review 4journals yourself. Great way of learning how it works from both sides#phdchat (original tweet)

@NSRiazat (01/05/13 18:52:28) - Writing process isnt something that I gave much thought to early on in the thesis but critical for publishing #phdchat (original tweet)

@LUDissertation (01/05/13 18:52:50) - @NSRiazat @EmmaBurnettx Editors and reviews may not know themselves, "know it when I see it" #phdchat (original tweet)

@NSRiazat (01/05/13 18:53:10) - @straightedgersx ~ audience is key. May a general starting point for deciding where to publish research. #phdchat (original tweet)

@RyanPharmilton (01/05/13 18:53:15) - @LUDissertation @NSRiazat That's what I thought too. Cited a lot from one journal so submitted first paper there. #PhDchat (original tweet)

@LUDissertation (01/05/13 18:53:38) - @DrAshCasey @RyanPharmilton @EmmaBurnettx @NSRiazat @Neilwigg I agree, reading work of others good way to improve your own.#phdchat (original tweet)

@EmmaBurnettx (01/05/13 18:53:44) - @NSRiazat yep! #phdchat (original tweet)

@philipmurraycit (01/05/13 18:54:11) - @NSRiazat I was at a seminar this week which really pushed the publication agenda - just another pressure #phdchat (original tweet)

@NSRiazat (01/05/13 18:55:08) - @DrAshCasey ~ can you tell us more about reviewing for journals? #phdchat (original tweet)

@HCPerrin (01/05/13 18:55:47) - Officially upgraded! As in, PhD progress, not "do you want a new phone?" Yay me. @socphd @phdforum #phdchat (original tweet)

@NSRiazat (01/05/13 18:56:01) - @philipmurraycit ~ pushing publication is great but writer does need to be clear about their reasons for wanting to publish? #phdchat (original tweet)

@_erica_lewis (01/05/13 18:56:29) - @NSRiazat #phdchat I think early & often - possibly targeting different kinds of publications & conferences as your work evolves (original tweet)

@AmandaMichelle (01/05/13 18:56:51) - MOAR READING RT @NSRiazat: How do we learn the different conventions/genres and styles of each journal for publication? #phdchat(original tweet)

@NSRiazat (01/05/13 18:56:58) - Just out of curiosity - what are people's reasons for wanting to publish? #phdchat (original tweet)

@RyanPharmilton (01/05/13 18:57:21) - @DrAshCasey @EmmaBurnettx @NSRiazat @Neilwigg Great advice. Very different to reading papers for information. Should try it more.#PhDchat (original tweet)

@NSRiazat (01/05/13 18:57:22) - Is publishing always about career progression? #phdchat (original tweet)

@LUDissertation (01/05/13 18:58:12) - @NSRiazat @philipmurraycit Start w/ a conference, very energizing! Then take that feedback and revise paper, submit for publication#phdchat (original tweet)

@EmmaBurnettx (01/05/13 18:58:28) - @AMCELL @nsriazat yes to a certain degree. I guess it depends on journal requirements. I re worked mine quite considerably #phdchat(original tweet)

@LUDissertation (01/05/13 18:58:57) - @NSRiazat Why do the research if you don't ever tell anyone about it? #phdchat (original tweet)

@EmmaBurnettx (01/05/13 18:59:14) - @amcell @nsriazat ....although perhaps that tells me these chapters still need re worked #phdchat (original tweet)

@AmandaMichelle (01/05/13 18:59:33) - 1) my ideas = 'diff't' 2) prog req 3) job mkt "@NSRiazat: Just out of curiosity - what are ppl''s reasons for wanting to publish? #phdchat(original tweet)

@sheenagrad (01/05/13 18:59:35) - @NSRiazat isn't publishing just "part of the job"- what is the purpose of your research if you don't share it? #phdchat (original tweet)

@AmandaMichelle (01/05/13 19:00:11) - it's about sharing on some levels, although it's only elites w/ access RT @NSRiazat: Is publishing always about career progression?#phdchat (original tweet)

@_erica_lewis (01/05/13 19:00:12) - @LUDissertation @nsriazat #phdchat precisely - I want to share my excitement & when I have them findings (original tweet)

@NSRiazat (01/05/13 19:00:23) - @AMCELL ~ trust my supervisors @janshs @bikerwise implicitly for good and timely advice. #phdchat (original tweet)

@laurapasquini (01/05/13 19:01:03) - A Job in Academe? It'll Cost You - Graduate Students- http://t.co/pJ2wlljBam via @untgradschool #gradchat #phdchat (original tweet)

@AmandaMichelle (01/05/13 19:01:05) - but it's also about validation. if a journal accepts your work, those 'experts' think you did something right. @NSRiazat #phdchat (original tweet)

@RyanPharmilton (01/05/13 19:01:32) - @AMCELL @EmmaBurnettx I've heard this too. Know people who bulked out papers and others who rewrote them. Or just in appendices. #PhDchat (original tweet)

@NSRiazat (01/05/13 19:02:05) - @sheenagrad ~ gaining recognition for the work you have done/stopping someone else taking credit for work by publishing. #phdchat(original tweet)

@LBA_OX12 (01/05/13 19:02:32) - How 2 find time to write papers/articles when there's all the PhD stuff 2 do? #phdchat (original tweet)

@NSRiazat (01/05/13 19:03:22) - Any thoughts about co-authoring? #phdchat (original tweet)

@AmandaMichelle (01/05/13 19:03:28) - my biggest problem = coursework RT @LBA_OX12: How 2 find time to write papers/articles when there's all the PhD stuff 2 do?#phdchat (original tweet)

@AmandaMichelle (01/05/13 19:04:13) - ideally class papers = prelim for publishing, but that's not what those assignments ask for. unless i'm SERIOUSLY misunderstanding#phdchat (original tweet)

@philipmurraycit (01/05/13 19:04:47) - @LBA_OX12 Even more fun if you are a part-time Phd #phdchat (original tweet)

@EmmaBurnettx (01/05/13 19:07:27) - @philipmurraycit @LBA_OX12 Very fortunate as seen as important part of my job so have dedicated hours. Also part of a writing group#phdchat (original tweet)

@LUDissertation (01/05/13 19:07:50) - @NSRiazat Co-authoring or presenting with professor can be good. Lots of mentoring, feedback on your writing. #phdchat (original tweet)

@NSRiazat (01/05/13 19:07:51) - @philipmurraycit @LBA_OX12 ~ ...apparently the REAL work begins AFTER PhD...!! :-O #phdchat (original tweet)

@LBA_OX12 (01/05/13 19:08:30) - @NSRiazat Now I'm starting 2 understand.... #phdchat (original tweet)

@LUDissertation (01/05/13 19:08:53) - @NSRiazat In my limited experience, best with newer professor who needs pubs. They remember what it's like to be grad student.#phdchat (original tweet)

@NSRiazat (01/05/13 19:09:07) - Getting good feedback from a trusted colleague about your percieved contribution may help overcome fear of negative feedback #phdchat(original tweet)

@EmmaBurnettx (01/05/13 19:09:09) - @NSRiazat: Any thoughts about co-authoring? ~ preferred. Collaboration stronger than done in isolation? #phdchat (original tweet)

@EmmaBurnettx (01/05/13 19:09:37) - @LUDissertation @NSRiazat Co-authoring or presenting with professor can be good. Lots of mentoring,feedback on your writing. Agree!#phdchat (original tweet)

@NSRiazat (01/05/13 19:10:56) - @EmmaBurnettx @LUDissertation - co-authoring is a good way to pool strengths, contacts and skills. #phdchat (original tweet)

@bookworm_29 (01/05/13 19:11:02) - @NSRiazat attempted it once but it can be difficult due to the commitments of the group #phdchat (original tweet)

@LUDissertation (01/05/13 19:11:31) - @NSRiazat @philipmurraycit @LBA_OX12 After PhD: no singular goal, lots of projects in different stages. Challenging to keep up.#phdchat (original tweet)

@NSRiazat (01/05/13 19:12:23) - @EmmaBurnettx @LUDissertation - sounds like a great opportunity to work with and learn from experienced colleagues. #phdchat (original tweet)

@LUDissertation (01/05/13 19:12:35) - @bookworm_29 @NSRiazat I've only had success in coauthoring with one other person, not a group. Too many voices and visions.#phdchat (original tweet)

@bikerwise (01/05/13 19:12:59) - @NSRiazat make sure articles are checked by colleagues, supervisors etc. No reason for high rejection rate. #phdchat (original tweet)

@NSRiazat (01/05/13 19:13:10) - Co-authorship - what about issues of voice, ownership, politics and time that colaboration brings with it? #phdchat (original tweet)

@EmmaBurnettx (01/05/13 19:13:15) - @NSRiazat @EmmaBurnettx @LUDissertation also really important for developing research profile & thinking about future opportunities#phdchat (original tweet)

@LUDissertation (01/05/13 19:14:36) - @NSRiazat @philipmurraycit @LBA_OX12 May have less support too if few new people in workplace. Not like student groups in PhD#phdchat (original tweet)

@NSRiazat (01/05/13 19:14:47) - @Emmaburnettx - teamwork is a great sounding board for ideas, help to make writing decisions and just to 'listen'. #phdchat (original tweet)

@bookworm_29 (01/05/13 19:14:58) - @LUDissertation @nsriazat attempted it with four of us but it just never happened! Everyone too busy with something else #phdchat(original tweet)

@danielcolquitt (01/05/13 19:15:26) - @LBA_OX12 @philipmurraycit Good training for an academic career #phdchat (original tweet)

@NSRiazat (01/05/13 19:15:38) - @bookworm_29 ~ why was that? :-) #phdchat (original tweet)

@bookworm_29 (01/05/13 19:16:03) - @LBA_OX12 waited until after PhD over for that reason (can't do everything) but pluses to publishing during the PhD process #phdchat(original tweet)

@bikerwise (01/05/13 19:18:30) - @LUDissertation @NSRiazat This is a good idea. Your supervisor even! #phdchat (original tweet)

@NSRiazat (01/05/13 19:18:44) - Also publishing is about what specifically makes your papers 'interesting' for the audience? #phdchat (original tweet)

@LUDissertation (01/05/13 19:18:59) - @bookworm_29 @LBA_OX12 Very big for academic job hunt, if that's your goal. Not everyone's. #phdchat (original tweet)

@Bonnycastle (01/05/13 19:31:16) - #TLt13 example of academia in social media is #phdchat. Is this a result of Twitter existence or just a continuation of a need that builds (original tweet)

@NSRiazat (01/05/13 19:32:06) - @RyanPharmilton ~ agree - dangerous to just view academic publishing as the only/main outlet for findings/ideas. #phdchat (original tweet)

@AmandaMichelle (01/05/13 19:32:09) - @Comprof1 the problem is that they're not at all useful for publication. the very nature of the assignments have seen to that #phdchat(original tweet)

@LUDissertation (01/05/13 19:32:14) - @NSRiazat @EmmaBurnettx Be cautious though, it's co-authoring, not grad student authors and the prof puts his or her name on it.#phdchat (original tweet)

@Comprof1 (01/05/13 19:35:15) - @AmandaMichelle You need to look for pub that fits them. Or, take idea and create article. You now have background knowledge. #phdchat(original tweet)
