Abstract:

Postdoctoral experiences in the academic development literature have been under-explored, particularly within the themes of being and becoming. These are closely aligned to liminality as a transformative state that engages existing certainties, rendering them problematic and fluid. In this duo-autoethnographic account, we reflect on the experiences of the first author’s transition from PhD candidate to postdoctoral researcher, and the mentoring role of the second author exploring how academic developers could better support postdocs in shaping their academic identities.
