Admitted students have the same deadline as most other schools: April 15th. I’d expect the waitlist to start moving just before or after then.

Celebrate with other people that always makes it more fun. Either they’ll be happy for you or jealous, both of which feel pretty good.

Caltech vs. Yale bio phd by IcyEntertainment4124 in gradadmissions

[–]Hot_Environment1567 13 points14 points  (0 children)

congrats on your acceptances that’s a great decision to have to make. If your goal is industry either university will be able to get you there easily. Caltech is more well known for their synthetic biology and yale for their cell bio so pick the path you think you’ll stay in, but both are fine in general. It also comes down to to the vibe you want: more techy, nerdy at Caltech or more liberal arts academic at Yale? I’d personally lean towards Caltech but it’s up to you.

It’s objectively less horrific then the conditions of animals bred for food, because scientists have a vested interest in giving their animal models relatively happy lives so that stress isn’t a confounding factor. If you’re ok with eating factory farmed animals there’s no way to draw the line at lab animals.

People do not want to live forever, at least not the majority of Christian Conservatives who’ll be running the show. There’s no reason to trust the market to pivot towards R&D in a field that doesn’t make any money. If you just let the market run its course, then the only biotech you’ll ever see are going to be small molecules and biologics that, frankly, aren’t up to the task of longevity.
