Day 10 #ResearchAdvent “About methodology “ Maybe, it’s all about the research question/s.

Awesome! My treats are either edible, or feelings (extreme sport with high adrenaline or vocations). Depends on how big is the mile stone 😄

Thank you! ☺️

Definitely, it was so beautiful

Typo: if you* haven’t been there yet🌝

Day 8 #ResearchAdvent “This year I really enjoyed” the mental break in Corfu after defending my research master thesis. I recommend if I haven’t been there yet.

Day 7 #ResearchAdvent “I think everyone should read…” about ageism and self-directed ageism. Check out this great blog as a starting point: yoisthisageist.com

Day 6 #ReseadchAdvent I laugh(ed) when I had to move to colder climates for my PhD as a semi-warm birdie. And, I still chill - just another way around.. 🥶

One of my college informed me about this amazing website:
Geromovies.org

You can see how aging is reflected on movies and shaped the main story around it. It is not always a biological point. These movies can also make you think about your social roles, society norms and unique personalities.

Please! I’m curious about it now

Any recommendations for films that reflects on (human) ageing theme? It can be around any topics. #GeroSciSky #GeroSky #FilmSky
