Beth Eyre - A guide to moving abroad as a PhD student

Beth Eyre narrates her blog written for Dementia Researcher.

Some of you, who follow my social media, will already be aware that I’ve just moved from the UK to the USA for a 6-month research placement at the University of Pittsburgh. Moving abroad as a PhD student can be very overwhelming, especially as no one really tells you what to do or what to expect particularly regarding the actual moving process! So, in this blog Beth provides some helpful and practical tips on the process.

Find the original text, and narration here on our website.
