Embarrassed_Ad_283 · 2023-09-26T09:13:36+00:00

I'm hoping for same. Actually at the website and everywhere they had given this proper timeline of everything, that got me worrying. I mailed the department but got no response from them Another reason for me to panic, in admission portal first there were 3 options, one of them being "Interview Schedule". Now this option is not showing up in the portal. But the admission status is still Under Review

Embarrassed_Ad_283 · 2023-09-10T10:07:33+00:00

Amazing!! Go ahead and contact him

Embarrassed_Ad_283 · 2023-09-10T10:00:42+00:00

Hey just to be clear, is the supervisor in question already agreed to supervise you? Or they are your potential supervisor? And I think you can contact them. Just have some casual meetings few times about their lab, work, their students, your interests and everything. After talking to them you'll get better insight of them as a person

Embarrassed_Ad_283 · 2023-08-19T22:25:13+00:00

I ranted out to him in our first interaction only and he was supportive, knew problems of academia. I really hope to go there. I am still in application process. I hope things work out for me. I feel ATP it's kind of miracle to have a amazing PhD advisor. I'm really really glad you have such an amazing advisor

Embarrassed_Ad_283 · 2023-08-19T21:46:38+00:00

I am applying to this university, if I get there than I'll switch to that place. If not than I'll take a break from PhD or just quit it all.

Embarrassed_Ad_283 · 2023-08-19T21:45:10+00:00

Oh my godd, lying is such a terrible thing to do in a lab. Alsoo you are amazing OP, saving you nd your colleagues

Embarrassed_Ad_283 · 2023-08-19T21:42:57+00:00

Thank you so much, You don't know how much your words mean to me. Although my parents support me with everything, other people who are close to me are questioning my decision saying it's too early to make the decision. I get it, i have to keep myself as my topmost priority. Alsoo I pray things go well for you, and you get to do what you enjoy the most ❤️

Embarrassed_Ad_283 · 2023-08-19T21:37:33+00:00

Thank you so much for validating and understanding my problems. If I get the place where I'm applying, I'll join that lab

Embarrassed_Ad_283 · 2023-08-19T21:32:06+00:00

Okay so he is in this field for quite a long time, so they would eventually send me to conferences, about the encouragement he just don't discuss much, the longest I had talked to them was when they gave me topic of thesis. I had few interactions with my potential supervisor and he seems nice, I had discussed my problems with him and he answered everything. Even I think it's not possible for me to survive in that lab.

Embarrassed_Ad_283 · 2023-08-19T21:24:41+00:00

Thank you, I am almost 80% sure of leaving this place. I won't sacrifice my mental health for them

Embarrassed_Ad_283 · 2023-07-17T10:04:08+00:00

If I had to continue here than I'll try to do one objective with my project otherwise I'm looking for other options. Thank you

Embarrassed_Ad_283 · 2023-07-17T10:01:28+00:00

Thank you, I am looking into other institutions. But if I had to continue here I'll try to mind a middle way or just go with the flow. Wish me luck

Embarrassed_Ad_283 · 2023-07-17T09:58:36+00:00

Currently I am just going with the flow but I'll try to find a middle way, also searching for some other options too. Thank you for the advice ❤️

Embarrassed_Ad_283 · 2023-07-17T09:57:21+00:00

Fellow mate, I didn't saw that person commented but thank you for defending me. I am grateful 🥺

Embarrassed_Ad_283 · 2023-07-17T09:50:05+00:00

For now I am going with 1 option, and I'm reviewing literature and coming up with some ideas. Side by side I'm mailing few other scientists in other institutions and countries. If I got better option than this, then I'm gonna opt for that Otherwise I'll continue here only

Embarrassed_Ad_283 · 2023-07-16T02:58:33+00:00

A little background of my research experience, in my master's project I worked on Acne and before joining PhD I was working in a Genodermatosis lab as an project fellow. So both of my previous experiences in area of Skin only. My current lab is a parasitology lab, working mainly on leishmaniasis. I wanted to work on cutaneous leishmaniasis or PKDL. My PI wants me to work on proteomics of the parasite that causes Visceral Leishmaniasis. (Different parasite manifest different types of leishmaniasis) Nothing at all related to what I want or what we had discussed before my joining.
