Why you should write your PhD thesis backwards By considering the central statement of your entire PhD, you can structure your writing around it, says Tuuli Toivonen.

Struggling with your PhD synopsis? ✍️ Try this - The reverse-order approach! 📚🧠

@tuulitoivonen.bsky.social and @digigeolab.bsky.social have been using the reverse-order approach to structure article-based PhD synopses — and it works!

As part of #Ukrainability project together with @htenkanen.bsky.social, @ollejarv.bsky.social, and Tiina Rinne we study how people use cultural ecosystem services in Ukraine and how they perceive the quality of these experiences during the full-scale Russian invasion.

Aitäh, Jaan! 😀

Thank you for the kind words, Johanna 😀
