🧠 As a psychologist specialising in misinformation and influence, I was grateful for the opportunity to share perspectives on how influence can occur through information - shaped by social influence, persuasion, and cognitive processes.

💻 By fostering a clear, consensus-driven understanding of what constitutes a "narrative" - and how these may influence us - it aims to empower AI systems to detect complex patterns, such as malign state influence, while avoiding reliance on opaque "black box" systems.

Thank you for giving me the opportunity to share it! It means so much to have a platform to highlight these experiences and advocate for change. 💛

Cecilie S Traberg @cecilietraberg.bsky.social · Nov 21

Thanks so much for reading and sharing your story! I completely agree - I’m also one of the fortunate ones who had a truly supportive supervisor - but it’s by no means guaranteed.

Cecilie S Traberg @cecilietraberg.bsky.social · Nov 21

Thank you for sharing! And I totally agree 🙏

Cecilie S Traberg @cecilietraberg.bsky.social · Nov 21

Wow this is so impressive - and what a lovely experience for them as well 👏 Thank you so much for sharing your experience!

Cecilie S Traberg @cecilietraberg.bsky.social · Nov 21

So happy to hear this resonates with you! It’s a reminder that these experiences aren’t unique, and it highlights how important it is to create a more supportive culture in academia- for all of us navigating parenthood and careers. Thank you for sharing this!

Combining PhD life at Cambridge with having 3 children would never have been possible without the unwavering support of my incredible supervisor, @profsanderlinden.bsky.social 🙏 I’m so grateful for the understanding and encouragement he’s shown me over these past years. Get yourself a Sander!

Thank you Philipp!

Thank you Christina and for sharing as well. I also thankfully had a very supportive supervisor, but still - very hard! 😅

Sharing this feels vulnerable but meaningful. 💛

In this piece for @natureportfolio.bsky.social, I reflect on having 3 children during my PhD - why I’d do it all over again, but also why academia shouldn’t make it this hard for parents to thrive.🍼🎓

I had three children during my PhD: here’s what I learnt

Cecilie Steenbuch Traberg worried that choosing to have children during her graduate studies might signal a lack of career dedication.
