Hi there!

I have just been offered a funded PhD in Psychopharmacology! The problem is I am being encouraged to apply for the university postgraduate scholarship for funding which I believe is less money than the original BBSRC funding I was told I would recieve. Is there a typical value attached to BBSRC quota studentships? I want to get my facts straight before querying this!

H

too many to choose! Margaret Attwood-The Handmaid's Tale, Truman Capote-In Cold Blood, J.D Sallinger-The Catcher in the Rye.

I did my undergrad at Cardiff and had the bestest time! Tis an awesome city especially if you like going out/socialising. What kind of music/nights out are you in to, i could recommend some places!! I still visit Cardiff a lot as i have tons of friends there, so i'd like to think i know the sights and bars!!!!!

That is a great suggestion! I'm there! Somehow I don't think they will be of the bikini persuasion!!!!

Now i'm all at odds! Bikini or Suit? its a tough call!

That's great info! Thanks!

I know this sounds really dumb, but i've always been really bothered by turning up to events not suitably dressed! I'm kind of the Sienna Miller of the Research World! So, can anyone please advise me on what to wear to my first PhD interview next week!? Its a PhD in Pharmacy at Brighton!? Is a suit too formal? Please advise! Thanks H!

Score!

Buttercop yay! she's the strongest fighter!

AND.. button moon, and cities of gold!! Loved the theme tune. But the scariest thing on tv was the host of fingermouse! he shouldn't have been on kid's tv, no-way!

Totally remember all those shows! Particulary like snarf from the thundercats as he was constantly moaning and going "snarf, snarf". Also really enjoyed, the a-team. supergran, airwolf, bagpuss, pigeon street, trap door, bananaman, superted (what was the secret word??, jimbo, rainbow and the clangers! Also remember kids shows from the 90's and 00's that i used to watch instead of doing my degree or masters coursework or attending lectures!

Cheers, i've applied to liverpool so you never know!

Hi There

I'm totally new to all this, so hi! I'm am currently looking for a PhD in the behvaioural neuroscience area of psychology. I've sent out loads of e-mails to prospective supervisors, some have responded and asked me to send in my research interests but many have just not replied!? Should i send follow up e-mails?, particulary to the supervisors i am really keen to work with? Didn't realise quite how lonely the whole PhD thing could be, but from looking at your posts...
Anyone know of any party PhD universities??? Holly
