More about DocTalks
DocTalks is an informal, peer-to-peer, weekly online forum by and for PhD students, postdocs and early career researchers in architectural history and theory. It is organized by a team of researchers from ETH Zurich, The University of Manchester, IE University Madrid, Hong Kong University, McGill University, MIT, METU, Tokyo Institute of Technology, Wenzhou-Kean University.
The forum meets weekly to present work-in-progress, exchange feedback, and discuss matters of methodology, writing, narrative, terminology, and periodology to draw links between different topics and areas of expertise. Meetings are structured around the canonical twenty-minute presentation, followed by a Q&A open to everyone attending. The format is designed so as to afford useful and direct feedback in a low-pressure environment. Present anything that is useful for you according to the stage you are in: from the outline of your entire project to the draft of individual papers and/or chapters; from broader historiographical hypotheses to specific case studies.
