Tara talks with Andrew Paterson about his remarkable PhD. Andrew interviewed 50 members of the police to listen to their experiences of stress, trauma, violence and police work. His results are remarkable. Post traumatic stress is not inevitable. Instead, powerful - and cheap - institutional strategies can transform police and policing and first responder cultures more generally.

Current PhD candidates share their intense experiences during the crucial final months. They discuss stress management techniques and the significance of emotional support. The role of music in maintaining motivation and effective communication with supervisors is emphasized. Topics on defining originality in research and learning from setbacks in scientific inquiry are explored. Practical strategies for productivity and early communication with supervisors are highlighted, ensuring a focused approach to thesis completion.
