Jun 25, 2019 at 16:26 comment added academic I don't know your exact situation, but what I would tell first-year Ph.D. students in my own discipline is: worry about finding a good thesis advisor first, cultivating a good relationship and following their advice second, and only then about finding collaborators outside your university. In particular, once you've done some good work under your advisor, persuading others to work with you becomes easier.
Jun 25, 2019 at 16:23 comment added academic @GlossyRetirement: Are you asking how to find a good thesis advisor? That is an excellent question, and certainly one that's on-topic for this site. As far as "How does one get accepted to a conference and gets funding?", customs vary by field, but a good thesis advisor will be be able to help you.

Jun 24, 2019 at 16:57 comment added 123 It is common for good researchers to have more ideas than they can possibly pursue alone and would be happy to work with a junior person willing to do the heavy lifting while they do the guiding etc. And this is a really valuable way for a junior researcher to learn how to do good research. Try establishing a relationship with people in your field of interest and just be open about your long-term hopes.
Jun 24, 2019 at 16:53 comment added GlossyRetirement Excuse me, but what you are suggesting is not totally realistic. > Develop expertise in the subject matter of your interest Let's assume that a seeker is reasonably professional in ones field of interest. > give good talks on it at conferences How does one get accepted to a conference and gets funding? > do some good research Isn't it the ultimate goal of the whole play? > The first step is to choose a good thesis advisor and solicit their help and advice on all of this Coming up with the rules to accomplish this task what partially why I have asked the question I mention.
Jun 24, 2019 at 16:47 comment added academic Short answer: develop a track record first. Develop expertise in the subject matter of your interest, do some good research, give good talks on it at conferences. The first step is to choose a good thesis advisor and solicit their help and advice on all of this.
