From my experience and gleanings, it seems that the Ph.D. is good if you want to do research or teach. This can happen within UX/entrepreneurship, but I'm guessing that you mean a different type of practice. In that case, if you're looking for higher education, try the Master's in some creative/HCI/interaction design program ;-) Dave — yep, saw that ;-)

Raises the question whether you'd recommend the PhD track to other people interested in UX/entrepreneurship? Nicely done.

I see that you study how people use images for various tasks. Do you study the use of comics in storytelling or in explaining problems/situations? That's my interest in it these days. Best of luck! And hang in there ;-) Hi Uma,
