Well, after surgery marked the big transition.
Official Start of my PhD.
July 1, 2013
I crammed and finished my surgery shelf, had a day to myself and then it was directly to lab without a break!
The moment I walked into lab it felt like the clock was ticking, yet I had endless time to get things done. For that reason the first few weeks are painfully difficult to focus on the project/thesis at hand. Additionally, I kept getting to lab WAY too early and couldn't convince myself that it was normal to sleep past 4:30AM.
I decided to do my PhD research in the McGeachy Lab, and I couldn't be happier. The atmosphere and environment is collaborative, fun, and a place I can see myself talking too much to my awesome coworkers! The transition was easy in some ways and difficult in other ways - since it is such a drastic change in pace and thought processes from the clinical world.
I will surely keep you updated with the progress of my research as the years go past!
Thank you for joining me on this wild adventure!
