Hi, I’m looking to start mine in same Biomedical Engineering in September 2024, which institution are you doing yours??
Thank you so much for the great contents.
I just started my PhD and it is amazing.
But how did you come up with research to do asides from your dissertation??
Speaking to others in your lab group, or people within your department who you may meet at seminars. Or networking at conferences.
Hey Dr. Amina, I just wanted to reach out and let you know that you are truly inspiring!
That is truly kind!
Hi Dr Yonis, I really enjoy your lecture on "I wish I knew this as a PhD student". Thank you for the enlightening me. Please I will like to know your area of specialization? I am a PhD fresher.
Cell and cancer research!
Hi!
I loved this video - do you have any quick tips on balancing studies and work?
A great challenge I face as well. Will be grateful to get insights on how to handle this. I often find myself anxious and overwhelmed
Thank you very much Dr Amina. How do see financial constrains?
What do you mean?
@@DrAminaYonis you know sometimes you want conduct your reseach with innovation that can solve public health problem, but you may not get enough fund. How do you overcome this problem! Thank you
I am phD student at Thailand.
Wasted 2.5 years of my intial phd years… did a vast literature review and managed to write 2 review papers. Struggling to find the right journal and formatting it into its template. Therefore havnt got into my real research work. Feel low and demotivated
Though ur video kind of pushed me back on track… I still feel lost
Will i migrate with my family if i go for a phd in a European county?
Depends on your funding!
Hi Amina. Is it possible to do a PHD in a different field from my BSC and MSC?
Or is it better to do an MREs degree to see if a PHD is for me
Hey! Yes it is - the methods/approach you have experience with can be used to relate to your new PhD field. The topic itself doesn't necessarily have to match.
Thank you so much 💕
Nothing was given to me. Totally abandoned by my supervisor and colleagues. Studying abroad. This PhD ruined my life. I hate academia. I wanna die, but I have a son.
