Dr Steve Jones is a recently-completed PhD student at the University of East Anglia. A computer scientist by background, Steve completed an interdisciplinary Computer Science and Business PhD in the Norwich Business School.

During the final stage of his PhD, Steve was involved in a serious motorcycle accident that nearly cost him his life. Despite a two-year medical intercalation and extensive physical rehabilitation, Steve came back to complete his PhD. Steve shares with us the techniques that have helped him along the way, including building professional networks and friendships, asking for help, reflective practice and “trickle writing” your thesis (some call this writing a “Living thesis”). These techniques are useful whatever happens to you during your PhD – and I hope not many people live through what Steve has – so I hope there’s something here for everyone to learn from, or at least enjoy Steve’s love for his subject and his positive outlook on life.
