Most people think a PhD means 3-5 years back in full time study. There's another route. And it's significantly underused. Today at 4pm CET I'm going live on YouTube to break down the PhD by Publication pathway: what it is, who it's for, and how it actually works. If you're a working professional or clinician who's already publishing or has a body of work, this might b...

In this session, we’ll walk through the essential ingredients of a strong dissertation plan, drawing on the core frameworks from the FastTrack Dissertation Blueprint. You’ll learn how to clarify your research question, structure your project, and identify the key steps that move you from a vague idea to a clear research roadma...

When a paper gets rejected for "unclear writing" it's rarely the ideas that are the problem. It's the paragraph. The most basic unit of academic writing,  and the most commonly misunderstood. Tomorrow live I'm walking through our PEER academic writing system. Point. Evidence. Explain. Repeat. Simple framework, but most researchers have never been taught this explicitly. On...

Narrative? Systematic? Scoping? Umbrella? Critical? Meta-analysis? They’re not interchangeable, and choosing the wrong one can cost you months.

In this live workshop, we’ll walk through: • How to use the PICO-D-T model to sharpen and stress-test your research question • How to identify your conceptual nearest neighbours (and why they matter for journal fit) • Practical tools to help you validate the publishability of your paper before you waste mo...

In this live, I’ll break down why systematic reviews are often the safest first paper — especially if you’re early-career, overwhelmed, or worried about wasting time. This isn’t a how-to. It’s about making the right research decision early. As ever we'll cover your research questions and review your work. 👇 Submit your video questions for feedback here: https://forms.gle/gp9cceQfWrXXWcXb6

Is the PhD system broken? The critiques of the PhD system often focus on lack of funding and lack of jobs. Those are real issues but are only part of the story. In this live session, we'll look at why so many PhD students struggle, for reasons that may not be entirely due to their own intelligence, ability or even hard work. We’ll explore: - why capable, motivated PhD students so often get st...
