I think I need to take the GRE again, though :/ are you planning on being a professor when you get your PhD? If so, do you have a strong desire to do research vs teaching? Is that because you don't think your current GRE is good enough? Usually just used by the admissions committee as a general cut off, so I wouldn't stress too much about it if you're over the minimum. The plan is for a research heavy professorship. I like teaching actually, but the research is really my passion. gafemaqs posted...

Let's just say my economic background was significantly different than those around me. I felt a not so subtle level of arrogance around some of my colleagues. However, I can say some things were difficult. It was easy studying the same basic area of research for 4 years.

Even if I was involved in an engaging job where the problems were tough and therefore on some level interesting, I still would be unhappy that I wasn't able to develop my own research platform.

The guy who was going to hire me actually had to let a few people go around the same time due to federal budget reductions.

It is, without a doubt, the best tool for providing a full view of systems level interactions. However, it is not without its faults, drawbacks, and shifting technological limitations. It's not the future of neuroscience as some people have pretended it is, but a tool to be used in combination with other tools and preparations for the understanding of the brain. As any tool, it has also been abused in the past, mostly just as a fancy sounding tool without contributing anything to the underlying scientific question.

COVxy 08/14/17 9:05:36 AM #42:	Thanks! An old lab mate of mine came down to visit on Friday, and we got to discussing time, and how quickly it passes, which makes certain things seem so rushed. He's trying to develop his own unique research platform, trying it leave his postdoc with some grants. This sort of feels the same way for me. Very pressured, seemingly very rushed. --- =E[(x-E[x])(y-E[y])] <cite>COVxy posted [p:884747482] in It's becom... [t:75656492]...</cite> <quote>Thanks!
