Thanks. I have 10 more publications

from conferences and journals(more from conference because of my major).
Almost all with my phd advisor, so publication here cannot help me with getting a good reference letter writer? Or you mean I can ask a stranger by just showing him my publications?.....

I don't have awards except scholarships and travel award for attending a conference. Do they count?

And i am fresh phd. just start working in a univ. Thanks a lot!
