Hello PhD | Career development is NOT a waste of time. We have proof.

We’ve taken a look through the wealth of episodes in the Hello PhD back catalog, a fantastic podcast series created and hosted by Josh Hall and Daniel Arneman, to share some of our favorite episodes with you.

Does participating in career development events impact the publication quality and volume of PhD trainees? A paper in PLoS Biology  in 2021 answered that very question, following thousands of students across 10 universities for over a decade. In this Hello PhD episode, Josh and Daniel are joined by Beka Layton (UNC Chapel Hill, NC, USA) who was one of the co-authors of this paper to discuss the research design, results and its conclusions.

If you can’t wait for our next pick of Hello PhD, you can find all of their episodes right here and make sure to follow the podcast on Twitter at @HelloPhD.
