    Data-Driven Academic Research: A Conversation with Professors Abhishek Borah and Davide Proserpio

    10-03-2026 | 57 Min.
    In this sixth episode of PhDreams, we are joined by our guests Professor Abhishek Borah from INSEAD and Professor Davide Proserpio from the University of Southern California to talk about data-driven academic research. Both Abhi and Davide agree that high-quality data is key to successful research projects and that empirical results often come first, followed by theoretical explanations. We also discuss why young academics should not be discouraged by seemingly strict data scraping regulations imposed by websites and journals, and we explore the pros and cons of the recent trends towards multi-method papers in marketing research. Finally, we answer a listener question about how to quickly evaluate the quality of data, so young researchers don't waste time on poor-quality sources.

    Tune in to hear the honest and transparent stories of these two leading data experts.

    How to Achieve Work-Life Balance as an Academic: A Conversation with Professors Els Breugelsmans and Martin Schreier

    22-12-2025 | 48 Min.
    In this fifth episode of PhDreams, we are joined by our guests Professor Els Breugelmans from KU Leuven and Professor Martin Schreier WU Vienna to discuss work-life balance for academics. We find out that work-life balance is a very individual concept, which entails that there is more to life than work. We further explore that it can be useful for young academics to stay in the shadow as long as possible, why family should always come first, and how sports and other hobbies can help to disconnect and become more productive. In addition, we answer a listener question about our identity as researchers.

    Tune in to hear these two role models offer great advice on how to improve your well-being!
