I am currently trying to wrap my brain around the idea of leaving my PhD program. Itโs been a dream for so long, but I have now failed comps twice and I donโt see a way forward. #phdlife
@hormonedietdoc Do you have a good peer reviewed source for this info? Iโm writing a paper on mitochondrial density and struggling to find good sources
Google Scholar and PubMed show you research papers. But they don't show how papers are connected.
Here's how to supercharge your literature review with "visual search," which shows connections between papers:
(And how to export papers to Zotero, Mendeley, and EndNote.)
Iโm struggling to find the motivation after not passing comps. Why should I finish my degree when I have a good job that I like that doesnโt require a PhD?! What is the point?

@LMalloy This hits close to home - I was at Southern Vermont College when it closed in May 2019. We were told of the upcoming closure in March! My thoughts go out to all at this college - itโs a rough road and I wouldnโt wish it on anyone!
The prophets and the life of Jesus testify: when injustice is happening, standing up for the people being harmed WILL ruffle feathers.
It does require saying "this is wrong."
We are not called to lukewarm bothsideism, we are called to do justice, love mercy, and walk humbly.
Very early on in my study I couldnโt wrap my head around why, during diastole (โค๏ธ relaxation) there was any blood pressure at all - let alone ~80mmHg!!
Until I discovered the Windkessel Effect!
I have made this video for my students to understand!

A make it make senseโฆ students ask for extra credit all semester. We give an optional question on the exam for EC - tell me about something you studied that wasnโt on the exam.
only a few students (<30%) did it. Those that did, didnโt need it.
