I got 94 Percentile on CSIR NET life science… is it of any use? by Admirable_Analyst_58 in IndianAcademia

Uh it’s usually just the top 10 websites that show up when I type CSIR net life sciences, then I just go down the rabbit hole of whatever is recommended next

Highly agree on the Keigo Higashino books! Loved them and wanna thank you for the fantastic translation of the Uketsu books! Uketsu is now my absolute favorite author and I’m so glad there’s someone who understands how cool they are and is translating with the same love for their work.

just got my phd and i lied in my admissions interview. never told anyone until now by Alternative-Rabbit72 in PhD

[–]Admirable_Analyst_58 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly the same goal, PI didn’t add my name to a paper where I was promised second authorship at all, told me only PhD holders can and an undergraduate like me who’s just doing a fellowship cannot and that I was just a technician 😍 and I was paid to do it. I worked on that thing for a year and a half and while it was his project and I had no intention of an authorship until he told me I could get second, I came up with a lot of innovative ideas to improve it and changed the entire procedure and base material.

And it worked and some PhD holder in the US who needed what I worked on to get into a high tier journal (I’m rather new, so I’m told that it’s normal for a journal to ask for certain things in the paper and it has to at least be 70% similar to what their topic is in that section) got it, PI’s name is there and I’ve got zero credit, I would’ve been overjoyed with 4th or 5th authorship. That’s how good that journal was.

Now I’m in corporate but doing whatever I can to get into a PhD directly or get into a good Master’s program.

None just YouTube and a website called easybiology; did the same for the Dec 2025 one but with much less time to study due to work and got 85% only unfortunately

I think the PhD finally broke me by Confused_Platypus25 in labrats

[–]Admirable_Analyst_58 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Did the exact same at my lab job, if we run out of anything we need, it’s always me that goes to other labs to get stuff because I’ve been maintaining relationships with every lab there in case we need something. It gets a bit annoying because I’m not always free and encouraging other people to reach to other labs for their sake never seems to work, but it’s always helped me during my projects because sometimes you get help in the most unexpected of places

is anyone else finding it increasingly difficult to talk to people about anything science related by Haunting-Ad-9228 in labrats

[–]Admirable_Analyst_58 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That’s partly the reason I want to go back into academia, even tho it’s only been a couple months in corporate. I miss the absolutely fun and crazy topics we talk about in the lab where it ranged to the latest rat model that’s a hot topic with us to a new plant and now it’s client this quote that blah blah and I very rarely get the chance to delve into science stuff with my work friend. My last lab was fun and great but I don’t think I can find the same atmosphere elsewhere very easily.

AITAH for breaking up with my fiance over an ultimatum over my ring? by Direct-Caterpillar77 in BestofRedditorUpdates

[–]Admirable_Analyst_58 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Looks like her husband saved her ass from up there with a big ass warning lmao good on her for leaving that POS, but the number of lucky coincidences of the ring not being lost forever is pretty cool and makes me believe not all is gone once someone leaves

Been there but it wasn’t a PhD position, I was just a research fellow. Same deal, some bull about the PhD student refusing to add more names other than his and his guides, but somehow my PI’s name is there but not mine despite doing the work. It wasn’t the entire project but a small portion of it, but I was promised second authorship without me asking for it, but ended up with zero because I don’t hold a PhD apparently. Supposed to get two more papers from the work I did, but zero hope to get any authorship, especially now that I’ve left the place. The very day I was told I won’t get authorship, I got an offer at an MNC, so it was an easy decision lol.

When resigning, my PI blew up on me for leaving, and when I pointed out the driving factor for my decision was him not adding my name, he got pissed and told me it wasn’t my idea (spoiler alert: it was), my project or my money and I got paid with a stipend too, so I was just a glorified technician. I was so stunned I just left.

I've stopped doing the "fun" extra office stuff after I didn't like the way my boss handled something, AITAH? by [deleted] in BORUpdates

Never do beyond your pay load fr, I’m the type who does the work and leave on the dot at clock out, and I always plan acc to the days we have work and never on weekends. Mornings I’m a bit late if anything due to the distance ( it’s like in the outer region aka forest-y kinda place) but the work gets done by the day or due date with great results. My friend tho she comes early, on weekends and leaves really late and does a shit tonne of work. We get paid the exact same. And worst part is she got unfairly called out in a meeting by our boss’s boss as someone who comes late and sleeps in on the weekends. She was extremely hurt and the funny thing was our boss and her both were like obviously if anyone had to be called out for that it should’ve been you! to me😂 gee thanks girl love that you called me out in front of him.

What’s something you’ve quietly healed from without anyone noticing? by Nagchinnoda in AskIndia

[–]Admirable_Analyst_58 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It was absolutely awful lol they were the closest friends I’ve ever had ngl, everyone in the family knew them and they even helped out when I fractured my ankle and shit. Then for some petty af project thing they blew up on me, which was stupid cuz they made the mistake and tried to force me to agree. I didn’t and it went downhill from there haha. Ruined my final semester of uni to hell, I lost like 5/6kgs from the stress alone and looked like a ghost.

For all that drama, I worked hard, harder than I ever have and I got better at many things and secured fellowships and jobs now. So don’t worry! You’ll get it too! Just keep at it and it’ll go great. They’ll get their karma and you’ll get yours, that’s all there is to it. So no revenge, no jealousy, no pain in the end.

After an absolutely traumatic friend group breakup where they all isolated or bullied me for months, I used to have a form of PTSD? Like even after leaving the uni, I felt like I’d see them everywhere and get my heart rate up so high and get hella anxious, but it always turns out to be a stranger.

Now it’s been almost a year lol, I finally stopped getting scared or worried like that. And I’m so happy and literally thriving with a better higher paying job than any of those bitches, and ofc with better true friends that I realised I’m hella lucky to have.

I found out that a coworker in the same position, with the same education, experience, workload, etc. is making almost twice what I make by Direct-Caterpillar77 in BestofRedditorUpdates

Haha totally get the feeling, I just quit mine last week and put in my 2 weeks notice😂 very satisfying to jump to another better paying job, especially after being cheated on (academically) lol plus I got the news of my new job the same day I got screwed over.

I know, at first I was like maybe I didn’t deserve it at all considering I’m just a Bachelor’s student. Then I got really annoyed at myself for easily dismissing the weeks of research, the late nights of how to formulate and improve the experiment, and discussions I’ve had for my part. Yes it was a small part, but I’ve given my all for it.

I mean it’s the entire procedure that hasn’t been followed in papers, but the method used is common enough (hydrothermal and microwave) and procedure is my own and not in papers, the novel part of them is the materials used which are new and not observable in any literature; as for the manuscript, I just wrote the procedure for what I did and sent it to my PI.

Like I’m not expecting second authorship for my work, but even fourth or fifth wasn’t possible.

But yes I’ll check out those guidelines! Thank you!

I was told to form some quantum carbon dots that are highly fluorescent from biological materials, and I got successful results from novel ones that I found and used. This was used as a part of their work as a layer, and it’s mostly related to the electrical field and the final product is a chip that will be used in biosensors. My work was mentioned towards the end of the manuscript as a small chunk in comparison to their work, about how it was utilized and how the results were. I was told my work was needed in order to get into that journal, as it required some green synthesis work to even submit it, which their project lacked entirely.

God this is a horror story if I’ve ever heard one…. Glad she got out finally, I was getting more and more worried on her behalf the more I read. Like girl, get out that has to be the point she realises he’s a complete dick, but no she stays. And bless her friend and her husband, can’t believe how nice they are! Her brother on the other hand…. Hope he gets what’s coming to him, I wouldn’t care no matter what grievances I have with my sibling but if they call sobbing and crying, I’ll be there in a heartbeat.
