As a PhD student, should I attend group meetings when they just make me feel bad? Should I attend group meetings? In our group meetings, scientific issues (experiment or results) are not discussed, participants only tell their situations (I will have a paper) or material, economic issues are discussed.
I am currently a PhD student and I will complete my second year in next September. I do not want to attend group meetings in any way. There are only two PhD students.
Since the first group meeting I have felt very bad because all I could say was that I was reading articles, I had not started my experiments. Then I started my experiments, and our group leader asked me 'are you still in the lab?' It was like pinning. I don't know, maybe that's his style. But attending group meetings makes me feel bad because I am the most inexperienced member in the group.
I have no problem with my advisor, I also had good results with my work which will be published.
In one of these meetings, the group leader said that to me 'She needs tutoring', but we have never met him except for dinner. I don't think it's fair. I am doing my doctorate in Germany and as someone from Bosnia, I don't know their culture.
I cannot decide whether to attend the meetings or not.
11 people, others are professors or doctors.
Most commonly, PhD students are required to attend group meetings.  Often, the supervisor can make whatever rules about group meetings the supervisor wants to make.  Ask them.
The group meetings ought to help you become less inexperienced.  If it's not working well for you, tell your supervisor about it.  If that does not help, discuss it with another faculty member who is familiar with local practices.  You might also get help from a counseling office or office for international students.
