‘WISDOM IN A NUTSHELL’
| (1) "In any creative endeavour you need a break, whether it is scientific research or anything else. The harder you work at it the more likely you are to get the break you want." Harry Kroto, Professor of Chemistry, Florida State University | (2) "The movie scientist who shouts 'eureka' is far from reality. You have to be passionate about your subject and willing to endure months of drudgery." Mike Benton, Professor of vertebrate palaeontology, University of Bristol |
| (3) "Often research doesn't go as expected. I discovered pulsars about two years into my PhD. It was too late to change the title of my thesis, so they appeared in the appendix." Jocelyn Bell Burnell, Professor of physics, University of Oxford | (4) "Find an understanding spouse that won't let you quit when the going gets tough. My wife earned at least half my doctorate." PaulNahin, Professor emeritus of electrical engineering, University of New Hampshire |
| (5) "Surround yourself with smarter colleagues and listen and learn from them." Mike Owen, head of the Biopharmaceuticals Centre | (6) "Think carefully about who you choose as your supervisor. It can be very inspirational to be supervised by a well-known professor, but nowadays academics can be abroad a lot. You need someone to talk to about your research on an everyday basis." Wendy Hall, Professor of computer science, University of Southampton |
