@ashleyruba It's also a great idea to begin your LinkedIn Networking journey early on in your PhD. That way, once you're near completion of your degree you're able to rely on your already established network and connections once you're ready to start your career.
@PhDVoice@PostdocVoice Research isn't a fixed process. Discovery ebbs and flows. Some weeks (and some projects) by their very nature require more time (in bursts).
That said, good planning can almost always reduce time. Almost. So, requiring/expecting a fixed # of hrs is absurd. IMHO
Some pictures from the Summer: lab outing to Bent Spoon for ice cream and at the Mol Bio picnic. It was wonderful having Jenny (rising 2nd year) join us in the Summer for the OURSIP program!
