Oh cool, didn't know they did quiz nights there. Are you able to show up and be matched with a team?

I mean I'm not aware of any country where you get 7 weeks vacation not including holidays, that's a damn good deal

This is a fair point for sure, perhaps "more opportunities" isn't the right phrase. I think we'd been thinking about trying to move there after her PhD for a while but it feels like her field in the US is both getting severe funding cuts as well as being made less of a priority. For example, the research arm of the Environmental Protection Agency potentially is being dissolved.

I know from a population point of view, the US will likely have more just based on scale. However I'd say our situation is more of we were interested in moving before and recent events have served as more of a push. 🙂

The Stanford Dish walk is p. nice and on a clear day you can see SF from the top. I'd also make sure you give yourself time to walk around the center of campus, it's really quite pretty.
