Dr Lucy Kissick - The PhDiaries

Hello, I'm Lucy, and welcome to The PhDiaries!

The PhDiaries is a survival guide that documents the highs and lows and successes and failures from the start to end of an Oxford PhD. Come and watch relatable misadventures and hear dubious advice as I navigate my way from hapless first-year to hapless post-PhD scientist out in the real world with a title and a novel.

I am Dr Lucy Kissick, I have a DPhil (PhD) in Martian geology from the University of Oxford, and I now live near the English Lake District as a nuclear research scientist. I am the author of the sci-fi Plutoshine (Gollancz, 2022), and in my spare time I am an avid wild swimmer, sea glass collector, and enthusiast of the Oxford comma.

I hope you enjoy the channel :)
