Its with great pleasure to announce that I just passed my PhD viva with minor corrections yesterday! Big thanks to my supervisors Stephen Gibson & Marc Alexander for their support these last years - & to my examiners Mhairi Bowe and Simon Goodman for their constructive questions!
I've been getting notifications about other academics tweeting for the first time in ages, am I too optimistic in thinking this is leading up to us reclaiming our platform? 👀

I fundamentally disagree with just about every part of this thread. There is more than one way to do good science. There is more to doing good science than replicability. And (more importantly) calling to the community to "drive out" researchers is, in my opinion, abhorrent.

🚨 Our paper is out and it is very exciting!
I contributed sections on Critical Discursive Psychology, AI and ethics in qualitative research (citing @JTasioulas ), as well as context sensitivity. Check it out!

So I almost overwrote my up-to-date thesis with a version that's 3 months out of date. Cool, I think that justifies at least 7 back up copies

discourse".
I'm pleased to hear that the attendees were engaged!!! 🤩
I would like to thank the panel members @DrSelinTekin_, Amy Marsh, - and the discussant Stephen Gibson - for agreeing to join the symposium - thus making it possible in the first place. Big shout out to the audience members for engaging with so many interesting questions 😁
