My current time perception project took 18months of planning to work out the theory and ideas behind it and to put together a proposal to send to the English and French government to ask for money to do the experiments. They took another 6 months to decide that we could have money for 3years of research. But we have to wait a few more months before the paperwork is completed for that. So this particular project will take at least 5 years and possibly longer.
Fortunately, we can work on many different projects all at once. I am currently writing a book about babies and what their early laughter means. It will take about 2 years to complete.

i’ve been doing my research for almost 2 years and i have about 2 years still to go! but im having such a fun time and my results are going really well so i’m hoping to get an extension so i can do my research for a bit longer! most phd’s are about 4 years long, which sound like a lot after you’ve just spent 4 years at uni doing your degree but you get paid to do research so its kind of like having a job really. 🙂
