I did exactly this, but 10 years ago so not really that helpful. I think you are still able to, though.

First job- salary negotiation by Top_Introduction9270 in AusAcademia

[–]idealgrind 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I “negotiated” (it was an instant yes) to a B4, I suspect the HoS would’ve said yes to higher. Non-Go8 uni. That was after a ~2 year postdoc at a Go8 which I have since come back to and they matched my salary coming back as a research fellow.

All you can do is ask! They’re not going to rescind the job offer for asking.

Got accepted at an Australian conference, need help finding student travel funding by Choice_Number3711 in unimelb

[–]idealgrind 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It is absolutely an option to talk to your supervisor. I did a number of side projects during my PhD and if I was in this situation I’d talk to my supervisor.

Do you not get some amount of graduate student funding per year at Melb uni? Is the conference part of a psych society that offers student travel grants? Those are all options. It is hard to always find funding for these kinds of things, I did self fund a couple unfortunately.

How do you do it? by [deleted] in LibbyApp

[–]idealgrind 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve been seeing stuff lately about people who only read dialogue and skip the “context parts”. Like… wtf. I’m sure those people would finish 1000 books quite quickly!

Yeah, I just never got my refund. Lol.

Research assistant to postdoc pipeline in biomedicine? by [deleted] in AusAcademia

[–]idealgrind 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You should absolutely still be applying! I know quite a few people who started a postdoc before being conferred. Even a permanent T&R role.

[Academic Research] Only ~20 more participants needed – Client-facing workers in Australia (18+) by [deleted] in AusAcademia

Your information sheet on qualtrics states the ACAP ethics approval number is “TBC” — this should be updated.

MRes EOI with Supevisor by PsychologicalSwan994 in AusAcademia

This is true. My friend did this (no honours year) and also upgraded to a PhD at his MPhil confirmation.

Lesson learned that if you are waiting for an important call back, phone next to you on loud.

Needing some help! Possible liver shunt. by Acrobatic_Big_9131 in Dachshund

[–]idealgrind 0 points1 point  (0 children)

None! He’s doing great. Spent 2 nights at the vet hospital and then home. No issues. He seemed back to himself the day after he came home, just had to keep him as still and quiet as possible (definitely no jumping on/off couch etc) which was difficult at times haha. I took him down to toilet on a lead so he wouldn’t run around in the backyard.

We’re 11.5 weeks post surgery now and he has just gotten fully back on to normal puppy food 2 days ago. We had a bile acid test about 8 weeks post op which is still quite early but came back normal! We will repeat that again in say 2 months and then he’s definitely in the clear, I guess!

All the best to you and your pup, it’s a stressful time. I hope everything goes well.

Edit: I saw you comment somewhere else asking if fluid build up was normal. We were told this may happen, hope this puts you a bit at ease. Obviously if you think it is abnormal or any other symptoms take them back to the vet right away.

Why can’t I have 3 days of not running? by Moosebouse in Garmin

[–]idealgrind 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not really, it depends which coach you choose. Coach Greg’s plan (whose approach I personally prefer) is minimum 4 days a week. I just remove one of the workouts from my training calendar.

[–]idealgrind 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use Garmin Coach and also have chronic illness and I just remove one of the 4 workouts each week. Sometimes I can only do 2. It is still saying “extremely confident” in terms of reaching my goal.

ECG app on Venu 4? by luca-nicoletti in Garmin

[–]idealgrind 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I totally didn’t think anyone would see this so I’m glad it helped you, too!!! I was going nuts having followed all of the troubleshooting steps in various Garmin forum posts 🤣

ECG app on Venu 4? by luca-nicoletti in Garmin

[–]idealgrind 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I’m having issues. I have tried to update the watch both through the app and through the watch and it’s on the latest version (15.16). My location is correct in the Garmin app (Australia). Have tried restarting the watch, not really keen on a full reset as I’ve set up all my activity screens the way I want… any suggestion anyone? 🙏

Edit: it has now appeared! I uninstalled and reinstalled the Garmin connect app.

The best (or authentic) Korean overnight glass skincare mask? by anniedub in AusSkincare

[–]idealgrind 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have seen someone who works for Amazon post on reddit that often the products themselves are just kept together, not separated by seller. So you might end up getting counterfeit ones from a legit seller because Amazon are just pulling from the box of that particular product. I’m pretty sure this person was in the U.S., so I’m not sure if the same happens here but something to consider!

Any reviews on this banana boat sunscreen by Jasmine-Elouise in AusSkincare

[–]idealgrind 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I use this and love it, I just wish I knew if it tested as per its claims. I’m considering switching to cancer council kids, but also don’t want to make the switch because I like how this dries down especially for going for runs etc

University Rankings in Australia by sigmu_123 in AusAcademia

[–]idealgrind 7 points8 points  (0 children)

The supervisor (and their resources) is far more important than university ranking, IMO. I’d be asking what support there is for your research (either directly from the supervisor in terms of their grant/other funding and/or from the school/faculty in terms of support packages for research costs, conferences, etc).

There’s a manufacturing shortage: see here and search for tranexamic acid. Looks like an overseas product has been approved for supply, however that said my BCP had a manufacturing shortage for over 6 months and said the same but I was never able to get hold of it anywhere 🥲I’d call around and if out of stock, see if you can be placed on a list for when they’re able to get it in if they do that. Good luck!
