For some international students, it's a natural step to consider studying a PhD after graduating from a Master's, and many students that come to Lund University go on to find PhD positions here afterwards. But how do you go about securing a PhD position, and what's it like to undertake one at Lund University? In this episode, host Fabio Cavaliere speaks to Gabriele Cobucci, a current doctoral student in Mathematical Physics at Lund University, who discusses his academic journey and his experience of studying a PhD at Lund. Together they cover topics such as how Gabriele got his position and what it entails, a brief overview of quantum physics and how Gabriele's research contributes to the field, the practical and everyday outcomes of quantum physics research, and of course, Gabriele's advice for students considering a PhD at Lund.
