In keeping with its commitment to students’ scholarship in the Association
of Internet Researchers, the IR14.0 Doctoral Colloquium offers PhD students
working in internet research or a related field a special forum on October
23, 2013. For many years, this pre-conference event has provided students
with the opportunity to spend some hours with senior scholars talking about
their research projects, addressing methodological and theoretical
challenges, and getting informal advice on juggling the multiple pressures
associated with job searching, publishing, and finishing the dissertation.

 This year, Annette Markham will coordinate the Doctoral Colloquium and
will be joined by colleagues including:

Tom Boellstorf, University of California, Irvine



Steve Jones, University of Illinois at Chicago
