Sylvie Noël, Population of One, March 30, 2010 writes: "You’re working on your Ph.D. or you just recently finished your dissertation? Congratulations, you are now one of a handful of experts in your domain. Yes, even as a “lowly” graduate student, you still know more about your research than the vast majority of people, and that makes you an expert. So what are you going to do about it?"
She suggests that researchers (including graduate students) should:
- Talk about your research. What have you done in the past?
- Talk about other people's research. Do you agree with their results?
- Talk about issues related to your research.
And yes, if you are an expert in the field, you should be blogging. Not just because it will help your career, but as a service to the community. [Link]
