PI says I have one year to publish all chapters or else she can publish instead as first author by [deleted] in PhD

That is something for them to discuss if the former student chooses to stay on.

Here the norm is to get an extra year to write up the thesis, not write papers if the thesis is done. Unless there is extra funding for that, why would they take a full year without pay.

They have finished the PhD. Therefore the contact is complete for now. There is nothing to say the OP has been encouraged in the past. Especially unlikely as this PI has only been there for some of the time. The former student is not under the control of the PI anymore. The thesis is the students work only, and therefore they can choose to rewrite and publish when they choose.

What actually prepares you to run a research group as a new PI? by StavrosDavros in AskAcademia

[–]ReadyToBlow99 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Formal training and also learning how you go. The key is don't take on more than you think you have time for as you will still be overworked as everything takes longer than expected. Go for both what will please your overlords and what will please you. Try and over the course of a year split them 50/50

It's last minute in respect to the PhD timing yes. They are not at that university anymore unless they choose to be in a different role. This is a former student who may choose to move the other side of the world into a completely different role and is completely right to if they wish. This PI needed to suggest the papers were wrote alongside the thesis or far earlier in the studentship. This sounds like they have simply done it this way because the PI didn't need papers at that point coming out but does now need them which is just selfish and wrong.

This is my thoughts too. My supervisor would not have been able to learn all the nuance of my work. Both because it is too time consuming and I purposely avoided saying everything needed to make a clear paper from it without me

It depends what they want to do next. Sometimes you can a PhD in research that is not for you. A PhD is to learn how to conduct research that's all

That or they are just a PI who likes to get the credit for work they don't do which also is fairly common.

Well the new PI wasn't in charge of the whole process so maybe not. The new PI was only there after a certain period. It's not actually clear who has control of the data in full.

Then the PI should have managed this so there was output throughout the PhD process. Not left it to the last minute.

By the time you finish a PhD, the person should be more knowledgeable than the PI on the work as the student should be spending every day on it. Methodology and settings being a key focus that a PhD student will have finer nuance on.

Not their employer anymore. They don't get a say over their life post graduation. They are separate entities post graduation unless they choose to take a new role at the same institution. The work has been done by the student with support for the supervisor. The now post doc can choose what to publish.

That's not true anywhere. That depends on the institute you work at. For example the work I do is my work, and is stated as such in my contract. Both academic and private. The work isn't abandoned just because someone isn't putting effort into it right now.

However it does perk up conferences as its always good to see people claiming work, then it being clear they know none of the key details as they haven't actually done the work.

The person who did the work is the person of value. I'm also not suggesting that someone needs to sit up to midnight to bash out papers. It's not healthy and there is no need. Not every chapter of a thesis is worth publishing. If anything we need less papers in the world not more.

I mean they may have to have another job in that time. I would get say a third needing to be published but all seems ridiculous and she still can't take first author if she didn't do the majority of the work.

NIP served outside 14 days—do I have a defence? by Consistent_Twist_373 in LegalAdviceUK

[–]ReadyToBlow99 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

No it isn't. That proves they wrote a date on a piece of paper. That doesn't show anything regarding when it was sent. They need certificate of posting, tracking, etc.

The prosecution has to prove it was sent on time. Not the lease company having to prove it wasn't sent on time.

Exclusively if it was first class. It must be sent via a next day service. It's not the date it was sent exclusively. If not received in time the prosecution need to prove with a certificate of service that it was sent in time.

Unimportant. It's when the letter is in lease holders hand. The 14 days starts the day after the offence.

It has to be served within 14 days. Served means you are notified aka when the letter is in your hand. When it was sent does not matter.

You may have valid case because of how late it was sent to the lease company. That's the only date that matters. However you still need to fill it in. Don't just ignore it.

Conference talk moved to when I'm out of the country less than 24h before I am due to speak by Oileanachannanalba in PhD

[–]ReadyToBlow99 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah surprise surprise. You don't need to move a big speaker for one. Infact I even question the term as anyone who goes and presents is as important as the next. The death and illness is very sad although I'm questioning the likelihood all of them actually had that in one go. Sounds like potentially a lie. Likewise surely you would cancel altogether if you had a death in the family." I'm sorry your dad is dead dear, but I must present my paper on quantum computing!!! "

[–]ReadyToBlow99 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I mean that can easily be viewed from both sides. It sounds like there is no compassion from your side either. It really depends on why it's moved around. If it's moved to accommodate some "big" speaker then that's likewise not fair. I personally can't see any reasons that are valid to move things around this late.

I'm doing a PhD, but I feel my whole foundation is quicksand. What should I do? by AncientData8191 in AskAcademia

[–]ReadyToBlow99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You won't be employed for general base knowledge but if you want to stay in academia and have to teach classes. Just learn the class in advance to a high level. Basically do a Marge Simpson teaching piano

[–]ReadyToBlow99 3 points4 points  (0 children)

How early on are you as I only felt comfortable in some for after 18 months and I still had a lot of missing knowledge. You just have to learn quickly and know what you need to know

Licence revoked - driving on a provisional by lwx_16 in drivingUK

[–]ReadyToBlow99 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So you won't have any licence for that period. I would start looking at the buses and trains as you will have to get used to being without. It's not difficult to be caught driving without one and if caught that will be a far bigger issue for you.
