In this episode, Erin and Angélica speak with a 4th year PhD student in sociology, Agata Lynch.

Agata's research focuses on gender disparity in Physics and how the UL-run SOPHIA project impacts bringing more women into the field of physics.

English is not Agata's primary language, so she has found innovative and useful ways to use GenAI to facilitate her research.

Agata uses ChatGPT and Co-pilot and discusses tips, benefits and negative aspects of GenAI.

She finds that short prompts and short pieces of text work best for her in terms of style and grammar. It helps with phrasing in the English language.

Agata advises to dive in and get used to the interaction as a learn-by-doing approach.

We were delighted to have Agata give her experience as a PhD researcher.
