Provision of Training
Training will be tailored to build toward your independence as a research scientist.
Progression Monitoring and Management
As a lab-based group, we see a lot of our students, and we encourage frequent interaction. As such, management of progression is less formally structured.
Communication
Frequent interaction is encouraged. We use whatever form of communication that the students are happy to use, for example Teams, email and WhatsApp are all commonly used in the group.
Meetings
PhD Students can expect scheduled meetings with me at least once per fortnight. These meetings will be face-to-face. I am usually contactable for an instant response on every working day.
Work Patterns
The timing of work in my lab is completely flexible, and (other than attending pre-arranged meetings), I expect students to manage their own time.
Notice Period for Feedback
I need at least 1 week's notice to provide feedback on written work of up to 5,000 words.
