Episode 17 - Insights into supervisorship, bad students and what makes a good student with Dr Natalie Ward

After previous episodes on some positive and negative student experiences on their supervisors, we have Nat to tie it all together by giving us an insight into supervisorship. Nat is a researcher with many years of experience and has supervised many students along the way.

She tells all about her previous PhD experience, what it takes to be a good supervisor, some of the best and worst students she's had and some tips on what it takes to succeed. Nat gives us a pep talk on seeing beyond the deep, dark PhD tunnel. We also share some movie and book recommendations...come for the therapy, stay for the reccos!
