Hi all......I am in a tough situation and just wondering if could get opinions about what to do...I have been working in this lab for the last three years..have published in nature immunology and JBC....my boss is real HITLER....She has made my life hell...she makes me work on weekends and holidays...never pays my dues...scolds me like dog if I fail in single experiment....
I was so frustrated that I resigned from her lab and secured a gud PhD position....Unfortunately, that PI called my boss and she accused me of data misrepresentation...I tried to figure out the problem and what I found astonished me....
I was working on a project when I left her lab......I had done quiet a few experiments...I suspected artifacts but before I could repeat those experiments I left her lab.....and now she is saying that all that data derived from SINGLE experiments was fake....that data was never repeated, was never into publishable format, how can she accuse me for that...
I lost that PhD offer and now I am afraid that I wont get any offer...I wont be able to get a PhD position without her reference.....I dont know how to fight with my former supervisor..she is very powerful personality..nobody will trust me.....I think its time to put a full stop at my research career....
