@shaileshak (2013-09-04 20:00:56) - Going to conferences early in the PhD journey can be less productive unless you already know your area very well #phdchat (original tweet)

@PhDSkills (2013-09-04 20:01:19) - Conference presentations: advanced level. Speaker had scheduled their tweets to send during their talk- cool! #phdchat (original tweet)

@PhDSkills (2013-09-04 20:03:35) - @shaileshak #phdchat But isn't it great to see what acceptable research standard is, learn who's who, & get advance notice of new research (original tweet)

@ai1sa (2013-09-04 20:03:46) - In conference presenting. i learned to not show off; learned instead to finish with a Q to audience #phdchat (original tweet)

@bcooke121 (2013-09-04 20:04:33) - .@shaileshak I have to disagree! Going to conferences early on can be good for inspiration & forming networks! It's about potential #PhDchat (original tweet)

@ai1sa (2013-09-04 20:05:16) - @shaileshak early in canditure might still be of value to urself in that it forces some clarity, forcing u to know own area better? #phdchat (original tweet)

@Paully232000 (2013-09-04 20:05:54) - @PhDSkills @shaileshak I learned so much from my first conference. As an early career researcher #phdchat (original tweet)

@_erica_lewis (2013-09-04 20:09:57) - I'm off to #critped2013 the draw is discussion about what unis & uni teaching should be: rather than my research area or methods #phdchat (original tweet)
