This episode of Annademia I’m talking about the first year Ph.D. student experience with my guest Jackie Jackson, a first year evolutionary biology Ph.D. student at NYU. At the end of Jackie's first semester, I had the opportunity to discuss the beginning of her Ph.D. journey at NYU. Our topics include: her research interests and how she found them, why she chose to pursue a higher degree, Ph.D. expectations vs. reality, first year Ph.D. courses, and tips for incoming Ph.D. students.
