Anna Marie Rosická - 5 things I wish I knew before starting my PhD

Anna Marie Rosická narrates her blog written for Dementia Researcher.

The past 18 months have been adventurous for Anna Marie. From moving to a different country on her own, through the infamous “I-have-no-idea-what-I-am–doing” phase, to gradually becoming settled in her new researcher life with all its perks and peculiarities. Yes, you read that right – it has been something over a year since she started her research PhD.

Anna Marie, like most who started a PhD knew it would be a learning experience. But there are also quite a few tricks of the trade she wishes someone had mentioned before she had started, to avoid learning the hard way! In this blog Anna Marie provides a list of such learnings. hopefully they will be helpful to someone else out there – whether you are just starting your own PhD journey or just need to feel less alone with the PhD storms you have already weathered!
