What to do if you want to get into research

Blog, Insight into researchBy Sue Fletcher-WatsonJuly 17, 2020

I’d say about once a fortnight I get an email from someone who wants to get into research in some way.  They might have a good idea that they think would make a nice research project. They might specifically want to become a researcher themselves.  They might be working on something that could do with…

How to reduce your word count

Blog, Insight into researchBy Sue Fletcher-WatsonJune 27, 2020

The last couple of days I didn’t manage to write a June Blog at all. The reason being that I was close to submitting a grant and perfecting the argument for that took up all my mental space for writing. I was reflecting on whether there was anything useful I could exratct from the process…

Bringing home the bacon: how to budget a grant application

Blog, Guest blog, Insight into research, Useful resourcesBy Sue Fletcher-WatsonApril 10, 2018

Rather than attempt a single blog covering all aspects of grant-writing, Duncan Astle and I are continuing our blog series of advice to newly-fledged researchers by focusing on the challenges of costing a new grant.  Costing a grant means working out exactly where money will be spent, and being realistic about what it is going…

Likewise, one of my favourite posts which I read was this ‘backwards CV‘ – a phenomenon I could easily replicate with my own list of rejections. Everyone I know who works in academia knows that…

What do I do all day?

Blog, Insight into researchBy Sue Fletcher-WatsonJune 20, 2014

On holiday with my parents last week and talking about my career plans, I became aware of how obscure the content of an academic researcher’s job is to anyone outside.  It has galvanized me to write a blog I’ve been meaning to do for a while about what the day to day life of an…

Moving on from FindMe: getting some more funding

Blog, Insight into researchBy Sue Fletcher-WatsonDecember 3, 2012

The time has come when I am beginning to turn my attention to thinking about what projects I’ll be engaged in after the Click-East study comes to an end in July 2013.
