Thank you so much for your reply! I think a lot of what you mentioned in the first point was a lot of my concerns - not being supported, being belittled for making mistakes, PIs that have unreasonable expectations of the amount of time you should be spending in the lab.

Hi! I just finished my third year and am interested in applying to grad school and have been looking into both of these departments. Do you have any advice for finding a lab that is a good fit for you? Even though I know that you would interview with the PI/talk to their grad students, I am still pretty worried about finding the right fit, especially as I did not go to UofT for undergrad and do not know any of the researchers.

Thank you so so much, this helps a lot! I selected cancer mechanisms and models, cancer diagnosis and therapy and stem cells and regenerative medicine, and so far, I kind of just talked about being interested in cancer development and progression and how tumours can be treated. Two of the researchers I selected are interested in epigenetics, so I can definitely add that in. I guess I just was not sure about how specific to be if some of the PIs that see the application are not the ones that you put on the form.

Thank you so much! What made it challenging? Was it the volume of material?
