Some of you may have heard of Jeff Martz who has recently started his own blog (paleoerrata) and has kicked off with a series of posts with advice for aspiring researchers. I must say I don’t agree with all of it, much most of it echoes things I have already written as notes for various putuative future posts for this blog, or just generally match my views. There is some excellent stuff on there and it’s well worth a read if you are a student, interested or even serious amateur or just want to know a bit more about how palaeontology (and academia as a whole) is split up. It starts here, so if you have not done so already, go take a look.
