A necessary part of the PhD / EngD process (after generating tonnes
of data, results and findings) is to be able to communicate all of that across
in short time frames, to those who do not have the in-depth knowledge that you
have acquired of the past 6, 12, 18 or etc., months. Generating media, such as
presentations and vlogs, along the process can give those outside of your tight
knit research community an opportunity to look inside and understand what it is
your doing at their own pace and without them needing to contact you directly.
It can even be seen as an on-going virtual CV for you as a researcher.
A piece of media I would like to make will be short 5 minute
(at most) interviews with subject matter experts on graphene, composites or
nanocomposites. With areas of expertise ranging from the research, practise and
business ends of graphene nanocomposite materials. As all the members in the
fields above will have different motivations or interests in the material, and
actually revealing that for others in the same field can allow for tailored
developments and focus for the future of graphene as a material.
