I didn't realize that Tübingen University posted a whole news about my last PhD student there graduating this summer. Nice!
Is there such a miracle as funding for a "roll your own" PhD in EU, UK, Canada, NZ?
I'm finding that most funded PhDs in plant science are slanted towards computation (either bioinformatics or remote sensing or AI) and that's not my forte nor my interest. I'd really like to be able to construct a research topic of my own given I'm not finding what I'm hoping for in advertised PhDs.
I'll never know if I don't ask, right?

OK, this is a new one... I was just asked to review a paper I'm a co-author on. I knew the reviewer crisis is bad, but this is an interesting development (naturally, I declined).

My review of @rwg's new book "Move Slowly and Build Bridges" is now published in Convergence
https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/13548565251409858
In my draft/notes, I had written "this book slaps and everyone should read it because what is thing I feel... hope? optimism? That's been a long time overdue"
What I actually ended up writing was: "A more just, equitable, and inclusive online world is not only possible, but it is already being created."
