Select items from the Ottoman Greeks of the United States Digital History Project Archive are now on display at the exhibit titled "In the Name of Humanity: American Relief Aid to Greece, 1918 - 1923." The exhibit will be on display until February 18. It was a pleasure working with the curators over the past year to make this a reality.
It breaks my heart thinking about all the #students who were ready to start their new #MSc or #phd in foreign countries and now they have to give up because they cannot travel from many more countries other than #Israel and #Palestine
It's two weeks until writing month! What's everyones plans for AcWriMo and NaNoWriMo?
I'm planning to write an 8,000-word chapter, re-write a book entry that will be published in 24, and attend writing retreats.
Any recommendations for apps to track my writing?
Academics, writers, editors, and everyone else who puts pen to paper, what are your goals?
I used to do something similar. But instead of cards I’d just write blocks of notes in an exercise book and the cross out the blocks as I wrote out my text. I’m too disorganised to be able to cope with loose cards.
Whenever people ask me want I do for a living, I often switch between"I'm a student" and "I'm doing my phd". The first feels like I'm a skilled 30 year old, and the second feels like I'm an smart snob. @phdlife
Are you an academic researcher, PGR, or post-doc who is feeling overwhelmed and burnt out? Here are some tips (courtesy of the wall in my office) on how to improve your physical, mental, and social well-being!
Identify trusted publishers for your #research
Through a range of tools and practical resources, this international, cross-sector initiative aims to educate #researchers, promote #integrity and build trust in credible research & publications.
If you have some semblance of organisation of your files and use a lot of PDF and markdown files (#obsidian) or #notion, check out Khoj. It's an insanely easy app to have either a local (LLAMA) or API LLM (ChatGPT) query your materials and talk about them. Setup is mostly done in the UI. It's search is really good too. Game changer as it helps reassure me that I am not missing things in my complex file tree.
