A small tip for candidates going to defend their PhD: No one else knows the thing you are going to present better than you do. Be confident. You have spent a lot of time and brain on a topic, and you are the best person at that moment who knows about it. #phdchat @PhDVoice

Few things to remember in research: 1. Patience is the key. Never loose that. 2. A good mental health will lead to strong science and concept. Never loose your peace unnecessarily for science. 3. Learn to work as a team. Research is never done in isolation.

Scientists, if you can't motivate (you are the best person who knows you the best) do not hire an intern. They can be severely demotivated for science by watching you. And that's extremely bad for a candidate at that age. You are finally damaging the science.

Sorry to say this, but people in science suffer from hierarchy in mind. A scientist from a "good" institution normally happily accepts to deliver a talk in another "good" institution, but normally not in "not so good" in their mind. This will keep widening the science gap.

Can't recall where did I come through this, but I think it's very apt: "Suppose someone wakes you up at midnight and asks you to explain your research. If you can seamlessly explain at that point, you have done your PhD."
