Whoo-hoo!

So how does a hard-core chemistry Ph.D. in inorganic spectroscopy jump into biology? Advice, experiences?

I've got a year (or more). Meanwhile, I'll be scuba diving and getting my divemaster certification as a reward to myself.

Wow, Pin-pin, you come a long way since being made cover girl for Caudata.org! Congratulations!

With a science-related PhD and divemaster certification, I can see you getting into marine biology and maybe end up feeding the fishies at SeaWorld for a living, but I'd much prefer to see you get involved with the WakeLab at Berkeley and become the world's leading authority on Taricha

(not that there'd be much money in it...)

) whats it gonna be academia or the real world?
 
Congratulations Dr Wei!
Now ask yourself, do you want a high pressure interesting job in academia, or earn some money?
 
If you're looking to go into science (especially biology, at least with a Chem degree, you can go into drug research and stuff), remember what Einstein said...


Congrats Pin-Pin. Should we call you Dr. Pin-pin, or Pin-pin Wei, Ph.d.? lol.
 
Congrats!! (I can see this is California... where else would one wear Birkenstocks with the cap and gown?

) Best of luck with finding the postdoc position of your dreams!
 
CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!!! Pin-pin. Now we can call you "Doc". So wonderful!!!

Congratulations on your accomplishments. If the Dr. thing falls through you have your career as a model to fall back on.
 
Total ownage!!!

But seriously, congrats, must be nice to have all that hard work pay off. =)
 
Thanks! I'm just so glad that I finished!

Now onto getting rid of the "thesis gut."

  • Katia Del Rio-Tsonis:
    Dear All, I would appreciate some help identifying P. waltl disease and treatment. We received newts from Europe early November and a few maybe 3/70 had what it looked like lesions under the legs- at that time we thought maybe it was the stress of travel- now we think they probably had "red leg syndrome" (see picture). However a few weeks later other newts started to develop skin lesions (picture enclosed). The sender recommended to use sulfamerazine and we have treated them 2x and we are not sure they are all recovering. Does anyone have any experience with P. waltl diseases and could give some input on this? Any input would be greatly appreciated! Thank you.
