PhD!

 

Yes, a research-based degree  that delves and cultivates understanding of a subject in a field, with the aim to contribute to a new knowledge.

 

It has been 3 months since COVID-19 has put all of us to working from home. I myself have been inseparable from my laptop and desk, and I know this is actually bad for my back, ahha! Most importantly, this makes me miss my lab so much. As a person who is used to working in the lab, now all I can do is dream about those days when I can freely access lab again, checking on my cells, without shifts, or being questioned by lab manager about my presence. So, I want to share a story about my job as a research assistant (RA); a job that I had for 2 years (2018-2019), before I decided to enter a PhD program in early 2020!
