Article request :)
Hi guys,
I was wondering if anyone has access to the following article?
Grinyer, Anne (2006) Telling the story of illness and death. Auto/Biography, 14. pp. 206-222
Hope you can help (up) Thanks ,-)
Funny/inspirational PhD quote
What a great idea! I'd have a look on the PhD Comic website (http://www.phdcomics.com/comics.php) in particular the most popular ones, they have some great quotes and pictures... also you can buy ready made tshirts etc although they are fairly Americanised.
What should I do besides working on my PhD?
Any teaching/mentoring undergraduate students available in your department? Some nice transferable skills there, not just teaching (teamwork, communication, assessment... etc)
Transcribing interviews
I've always used Audacity, works very well (and free) :-)
To continue with PhD or not!!
Ouch... not a good situation to be in :-(
After 3 years it seems a real shame to leave it, how much have you got left to do? Could you get a full time job and attempt to get it finished in your spare time?
Any other possible funding opportunities?

Hi Marie, I'm at Queen's Campus, School of Medicine and Health!
Slightly worried now Mackem!
Not at all, as the people I dealt with have all gone now. Besides, Stockton is another world. ;-)
I was at the South Road Campus in Durham itself. As I was a home based researcher there for one year's post-doc, I never got too deeply involved. That is as much as I'm saying, except to say that the cultural differences for someone who's gone through the new Uni. route can lead to some interesting juxtapositions. :-)
Arhhh :-) Makes sense. Yeah it does feel like another world sometimes, not only in comparison with Durham main campus but even in comparison to civilised society ;-)
How long to wait for PhD interview results?
My experience (Durham) was that I had the interview 20th Dec, was told that I would hear in the New Year, then I received a phone call 2 hours later... !
Then we went through the formal processes of accepting verbal offer, getting written offer, accepting written offer, references, registration... etc.
