oh my god thats loads!!! well done

I spent this morning faffing about trying to decide on trypsin\EDTA concs, then washed some glasswear. Wrote my new and hopefully improved protocol. Read some stuff, argued with my bf on the phone and washed somemore glasswear. Oh the excitement! I can barely contain myself!

that sounds interesting, mine is all to do with immunology and microbiology. Looking at how bacterial and fungal infections effect the immune response.


Thanks pea, what are you studying?

I was totally going mad last week butI have managed to calm myself down now and have been getting on with some more reading and planning this morning. So I'm feeling a little better now.

hi frankie,

I'm glad its not only me. I have started my lit rev I have written about 3000 words so far. Hopefully I will get some samples on wed. What area is your phd in? Its nice to talk to ppl in the same situation.

Hi everyone,

I'm really fed up. I have been doing my phd for nearly 4vmonths now and I still haven't really got past the reading stage. I have been in the lab very occasionaly - i have practiced one technique once. Delays are main prob I'm waiting on samples and also on someone deciding when I can start work in their lab. Is anyone else experiencing this?? How can I ever get a PhD if I never get any lab work done?? Im really worried about it.

:(

p.s. sorry all i ever do is moan!
