Welcome to the PhD Survival Guide Podcast! As we always say here on the podcast, every PhD journey is unique. I worked full-time in the laboratory and had the privilege of dedicating the majority of my time to my experiments. While I have talked in depth about the pros and cons of this, not all of you have the same experience. In this episode, I spoke to Dakota, a recent PhD graduate who juggled a full-time PhD with a full-time job outside of academia. We spoke about various topics, such as the challenges she faces, ways to expand on your research and experiences, and how to navigate non-academic careers during, and after, your PhD! As always, we hope you enjoy this episode!
Dr. Dakota:
Dakota is a recent PhD graduate who studied the experiences of Latino young adults using dating apps, their identity construction, partner preferences, and conceptions of happily ever after. She has six years of research experience in both the non-profit and tech sectors and currently works as a mixed methods User Researcher for a tech company. Dakota has previously worked at Facebook studying online connection and community in Facebook groups. In her past in non-profit research, she studied foster youth outcomes at the City University of New York (CUNY)’s Accelerated Studies in Associate’s Programs as well as social welfare intervention analysis for low-income Latino families at the National Hispanic Research Center. She earned her M.A. in Sociology and B.A. in American Studies from Columbia University and is a former Fulbright Spain grantee. Connect with Dakota:

Welcome to the PhD Survival Guide Podcast! In the recent past, some of you have reached out asking these key questions: Does it really make a big difference to have a Master's degree? Or does the research experience you completed in your Bachelor's degree really prepare you for the research burdens in a PhD? What if you don't have either of these things, will you be at a severe disadvantage? In this episode, we tackle the origin stories of Cristina (who has an MPH), Ferass (who has a BS with lab experience), and Sarah (who has a BS with no lab experience). We talked about how how our previous experiences before our PhDs may have impacted or prepared our journies throughout our degrees. As always, we hope you enjoy this episode!

Welcome to the PhD Survival Guide Podcast! Pursuing a PhD can be a very isolating experience. You may soon come to realize that the demands of being a PhD student can consume your time. This drastic shift in your work-life balance can also significantly affect your relationships, including family, friends, and significant others. In this episode we talk with Dr. Victoria Godieva about how starting and pursuing our PhDs changed the relationships around us. We also talked about the qualities we looked for in relationships and how to create sustainable connections. As always, we hope you enjoy this episode!
Dr. Victoria Godieva:
Dr. Victoria Godieva is a recent PhD graduate in biochemistry from Florida International University.

She has been awarded with multiple honors including the transdisciplinary biomolecular and biomedical sciences fellowship, the Sylvia Turman scholarship, and the dissertation year fellowship. Outside of the laboratory, she is a strong advocate for female representation in STEM and has grown her public platform to voice her opinions on these important topics as well as student life, transparency on a day in the life, and mental health.

Welcome to the PhD Survival Guide Podcast! In my PhD, behind every single successful experiment, there were multiple (and I mean a ton) of failed experiments. That's totally normal! It's through failure that we learn how to find success, and you're going to fail a lot in your PhD. As such, it's important to learn how to properly troubleshoot an experiment or procedure. This also applies to those students that are doing their PhDs outside of STEM. So in this episode, I lay out a 6 step (technically 7 but whatever) guide as to how to generally tackle any troubleshooting procedures. So before you go back to banging your head against the wall, please listen in! I hope you enjoy the episode!

Welcome to the PhD Survival Guide Podcast! At some point of your career as a PhD student, you will have to take the dreaded comprehensive exams (comps for short). Doesn't sound familiar? Maybe you call them preliminary exams or qualifying exams. Regardless, this exam is a necessary requirement for all PhD students to become PhD candidates. In this episode, I talk about why comps are so scary, what exam committees are and how to use them to your advantage, as well as the major formats of your comps and what to expect!
