Episode 24: How to use your skills across disciplines in research, em dash vs. en dash, and how to prepare for your literature review

Welcome to Dr. Mandie Unedited, the podcast where we discuss research, writing, and PhD realness! My name is Dr. Mandie. I am a researcher and an academic editor who wants to empower people to be successful in their PhD process and in the research world because I believe that the more beautiful minds that are developing research, the better!
