<\/a>As we all know, doing your PhD or MA is hardly a walk in the park; everyone is isolated by the uniqueness of their research, which can make it seem like no one really understands what you are going through. We also know that it can be difficult for people to get involved if they don\u2019t live locally, if they work, or are doing their PhD part time. That is why, this year, we are making a concerted effort to match our lively presence within the School with a lively online presence! We have already started blogging on the School-blog,\u00a0Beyond Frontiers<\/a><\/strong>,\u00a0<\/strong>and you can easily find us as we will always be tagged \u2018Postgraduate\u2019. If you have something you would like to blog about, whether you would like share a conference experience or a research idea, please send it to our IT Officer, Lauren, at\u00a0l.emslie@ncl.ac.uk<\/a>. Alternatively, if you have an idea for one and would like to chat about it, please do come and find us or e-mail one of our\u00a0committee members<\/a>, who will\u00a0be happy to chat to you about it!
