PhD life is a strange mix of big ideas, broken experiments, impossible deadlines, free seminar food, mysterious reviewer comments, and advisor meetings that somehow create three new projects.

Things Only PhD Students Understand is a funny and relatable collection of illustrated moments about the everyday chaos of graduate school. From late nights in the lab and dissertation struggles to conference awkwardness, teaching, peer review, labmates, and the research problems that follow you home, every page captures a little piece of academic life that PhD students know all too well.

Inside, you'll find humor about:

  • Research and experiments that refuse to cooperate
  • Advisors, committee meetings, and quick questions
  • Lab life, shared equipment, and late-night survival
  • Dissertations, revisions, peer review, and deadlines
  • Conferences, teaching, presentations, and networking
  • Caffeine, free food, questionable work-life balance, and everyday PhD habits
  • The strange ways research changes how you think outside the lab
With colorful illustrations, short jokes, fake charts, definitions, flowcharts, and familiar academic situations, this book is designed for quick laughs and plenty of That is way too accurate moments.

A fun gift for PhD students, doctoral candidates, graduate students, researchers, postdocs, labmates, academics, and anyone who has survived, or is currently surviving, graduate school.

Whether you're procrastinating on your dissertation, waiting for an experiment to finish, or simply taking a well-earned break, this book is here to remind you that you're not the only one living the PhD life.

Research is serious. PhD life doesn't always have to be.
